Hi @Community member ,
It depends on your target application.
If you want to exploit the embedded digital feature (Tilt), you can follow the instruction in the application note AN5040, p.54.
An example of tilt detection implementation code (with the LSM6DSM) can be found on Github, C drivers repository --> lsm6dsm_tilt.c
On the ou can use the same formulas used for the inclinometers, and described in the DT0140 design tip.
For example, at pag. 16 the trigonometric details are reported:
As general suggestion, make sure that the device is well calibrated (i.e. the residual acceleration along the axis in a steady condition is close to the ideal value (0g or 1g). You can write the "calibration" value peculiar for each device in the OFS_USR registers.
