Description

The MicroStrain 3DM-GX3 is a triaxial accelerometer designed to measure 360 degrees of angular motion on three orthogonal axes. The 3DM-GX1 has now been retired in favour of later MicroStrain products. The 3DM-GX1 featured on-board processing/filtering of accelerometer, gyro and magnetometer channels, with standard RS-232 and RS-485 outputs, and optional analog output. It offers 16 bit A/D resolution, accuracy of +/-0.5 degrees for static test conditions or +/-2 degrees for dynamic test conditions, 100 Hz digital output rate for Euler, Matrix and Quaternion, and operates in temperatures of -40 to 70 degrees C with enclosure (or +85 degrees C without enclosure).
