stm32f103 reading integrated imu sensor

stmuser3535
Associate II

Hi, I am a beginner user of the stm32 board. 
I am working with an ICM20607 IMU sensor, and I want to read the accelerometer data (x, y, z axes) using the Cube IDE. 
I ve read a lot of sources for one week but couldn't find a way to fix it. I can't see something on my serial port. What am I missing? Thank you. 

Here is the code and pinsScreenshot 2024-10-11 at 1.39.56 PM.png

Here you can find help with any aspect of your STM32 project. Software, electronics and more. 

>>I ve read a lot of sources for one week but couldn't find a way to fix it.

Ok, but what DOES happen?

Do the I2C functions read anything? Do they return error or status codes?

Can you read any of the STATUS or WHOAMI registers?

How's this wired? You have external pull-ups?

You have this sensor on a board? You've looked at the signals with an oscilloscope or logic analyzer?

Up vote any posts that you find helpful, it shows what's working..

I'm here to learn, not copy-paste someone's code. Sorry, you're only making an advertisement here. 

yes, this imu sensor is on the board. I don't have any wiring on board. Do I need it? Do I need to check signals? the board is new, and I run another code on it without issue. 
there is no warning or error for the code.
I only see these. , ax - ay- az

Hi,

With all respect, not only an advertisement. Rather, an life buoy. Imagine you're driving somewhere and run out of gas. You tell a stranger that you need gas. He says "here's a gas station around the corner" . "No! you're advertising" you reply.

So you have data and you're trying to send over huart2. So how is UART2 connected to the outside world? What are you using to view this data? Baud rate match both ends?

The data should come from the integrated IMU sensor as x,y, and z. For example, generally, we can use mpu6050 for those cases. I am using console view > serial port in CubeIde.  @Karl Yamashita 

Again, you've shown you have data. I'm trying to see your issue with

I can't see something on my serial port.

So how are you connecting the UART2 to the outside world, in this case the STM32CubeIDE console?

UART2 is routed through the st-link interface to the usb port. Am I correct? @Karl Yamashita
