Hi all!
I've been trying to hook up a "Parallax Lisy300GyroscopModule" to my arduino.
Product page:
http://www.parallax.com/StoreSearchResults/tabid/768/txtSearch/lisy300/List/0/SortField/4/ProductID/588/Default.aspx
Specs/Manual:
http://www.parallax.com/Portals/0/Downloads/docs/prod/sens/27922-LISY300GyroscopeModuleV1.0.pdf
The manufacturer says: Easy SPI interface.....
So I went here:
http://www.arduino.cc/playground/Code/Spi
to find out how to do that.
Problem is: My sensor module only has a single Dout....... so how am I supposed to connect to the MISO/MOSI pins on the arduino?
Ignoring the 5v, Ground and Selftest pins, the sensormodule only has 3 pins available for SPI: CLK,CS,Dout
whereas arduino offers 4: CLK,SS(CS),MISO,MOSI
I've been searching forums for 2 days now, I've found out that there is something called 3-pin SPI aswell. Allthough this seems to require a "SISO" pin on the GyroModule and since it is marked "Dout in the manual and other Parallax products do sport an SISO pin.....
I'm not quite sure if that's what I'm dealing with here.
Is this compatible with Arduino and the SPI library?
If yes, then how would I go about hooking it up?
Any/all help with this would be much appreciated....Hope I'm being clear enough.
I'm still kind of new to Arduino and this has me stumped at the moment.
P.S:nevermind the code for actually reading it, Ill sort that out later
(I hope :P)
Thnx in Advance!
