The datasheet of the BMX160 provides steps for configuring the magnetomer into a desired power mode and set the ODR. One step that I am unclear on what it achieves exactly is the setting of the REPXY and REPZ presets to low power, regular, enhanced regular and high accuracy modes. What do these presets represent and what is their effect on power consumption? Likewise, do they have to be configured a certain way if the magnetometer is configured in low power mode? ...

Hello, I am attempting to use the BMX160 sensor to count steps using acceleration data. I am aware there is already a built-in step counter but I would like to implement the algorithm myself As I am still very early in the development phase for this, I'd like to verify the algorithm logic is sound before attempting to interface it with real accelerometer data. Are there any available data sets for acceleration that convey the following: -Total steps taken during the data sample -Output Data Update Frequency from The Accelerometer for the Data Set (ODR register value) -Timestamping of each accelerometer output data point (SENSORTIME register output would be good) If I had such a data set I could test the algorithm to take in this data as simulated input in lieu of actually interfacing with the sensor. Thanks! ... View more
