ADXL345 I2C accelerometer example

I was looking at theADXL345 I2C accelerometer example and did not find a wiring diagram like there is with many of the other LabVIEW examples. How is it supposed to be wired?

Also, the note at the bottom of the block diagram refers to a different example.

Promises promises.  Where is this wiring diagram? They have a ADXL345 12C Acceleramoter vi but no wiring chart of the board of it. Please incorporate this into a vI.

I would suggest you read the manual, now at Rev A at http://usfirst.org/roboticsprograms/frc/content.aspx?id=452

.  Complete instructions for wiring the KOP sensors are included.

Thank you for posting this document Jon! 

I will recommend to R&D to add this into the VI but for now this is going to be the best resource for this sensor.

Thanks!

I am currently working on a DAQ system to look at 0-g drift characteristics for the adxl345 and other accelerometers.  Where can I find the example VI's for I2C and SPI?

Thanks in advance
