Issue: Reading Gyroscope Sensor Into MAXUINO

Richard Wang's icon

Really appreciate anyone that can help me out here!! I've been trying for hours on getting Max (using maxuino) to read my gyroscope sensor (MPU-6050) analog data via Arduino.

I know my sensors and connections work, because I can read the analog data on the Arduino software, by uploading the MPU-6050 example onto my Arduino Uno, and checking the serial monitor.

However, I need to use Max, to automate certain MSP objects via the gyroscope. But I can't seem to get Maxuino reading my sensor properly.

If it helps, this how my sensor is connected to the Arduino Uno: https://301o583r8shhildde3s0vcnh-wpengine.netdna-ssl.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/conn.png

I can initialise, and test the auto flash on the LED, and it responds, so I know that Maxuino can read my Arduino. So I believe this is the only section that I'm stuck on:

With my current configuration, the analog values just get stuck on 0.63-0.66, no matter how much I tilt and move my sensor.

I will list the configuration that I have currently:

set pin modes:

I've also tried setting pin# to 18 and 19 (that correspond to A4 and A5 analog pins on the arduino, but I still get the same result.

analog INPUT: set to pin #19 (since I have the sensors connected to A4 and A5?)

And that's it. I'm not sure if I'm supposed to change anything else, but all I'm doing is reading analog data.

Seriously, if anyone can help me out here I will greatly appreciate it so much! Let me know if you need more info...

Hi Richard, did you resolve?
I have the same problem...
