Hi,

When starting the Windows app 'Sensors_Datalog' it does not show any comport although in device manager the nucleo is seen as com13. Only the SAVE and CLEAR buttons are highlighted. I tested it on Win7 and Win10. Who can help me out?

Hi,

In order to use the Sensors_DataLog GUI, ensure that the relevant hardware and software is correctly set up, check if the necessary drivers are installed and the expansion board along with STM32 Nucleo board is connected to the computer.You can follow the setup guide described in this manual

Hi,

I read the quick start guide and also managed to upgrade the firmware but to no avail. I wonder why I did not see this document before although I downloaded all possible documentation from the website. But finally it probably is some Windows (or Visual Basic...?) problem. To me this is all very frustrating. So in the meantime I developped my own SYSCLK, I2C and USART driver from ground up and it works fine now showing the gyro and accelerometer outputs in Hyperterminal. Thanks anyway.
