error : Float_t does not name a type

[Esbriven]

Hi, I wanted to try my STEVAL board with the LSM6DSV16X embbeded, i compiled the given example "LSM6DSV16X_DataLog_Terminal" with the arduino IDE, but it seems that the "float_t" type occurs error. I tried to change all the occurrences in the header files "LSM6DSV16XSensor.h" and "lsm6dsv16x_reg.h" however it didn't solve the issue since, it seems that there is other errors in the "lsm6dsv16x_reg.c" source file.. Am I doing it wrong ? Best regards :)

Hello @Esbriven , I updated the library replacing all the references to float_t with float. You can try to download the 1.2.0 release and see if all the issues are solved. Best Regards, Carlo

Hi, Thank you for your answer the code compile and execute now. However the data displayed on the monitor remain the same even when I'm moving my STEVAL-MKI227KA. It could be my pin connection that are incorrect though.. I connected the following : VDD => 3.3V pin on my Arduino Uno R3 VDD_IO => CS pin on my STEVAL SDO => GND SCx/SDx => GND GND1 and 2 => GND SDA/SCL => SDA/SCL on the Uno

I don't know if you can help me but anyway thanks for the fast response Best regards

Hello @Esbriven , if you connect SDO to GND, you must change the I2C address. So, you must define the sensor instance in this way:

LSM6DSV16XSensor sensor (&Wire, LSM6DSV16X_I2C_ADD_L);

Alternatively, if you don't want to change the code, you must connect SDO to Vdd. Best Regards, Carlo

Thanks a lot it works perfectly fine !
