Alex, did you notice that your Y axis is not changing at all (AN1) it’s always ~330, it should change to similar ranges as AN0 (X axis).

This will make clear if sensors are sending any meaningless data. Also please specify what are you connections (which sensors to which AN port is connected).

The point representing the X,Y position seems to be snapped to the upper left corner. Moving the device I get some desplacements but the charts look like they only were going to half the possible values (see attached screenshot). http://www.flickr.com/photos/43076371@N07/6344948633/ Do you have an idea about what could be wrong? I put also the sensor boards on the device in the same position as in the picture that you have in your tutorial. Thanks in advance for your help. Regards, Alex Hi

Why aren't you posting a link to the updated SW sorce code corresponding to the new modifications? Would it be possible to get it? Thanks. Alex Hi,
