Hi  All, 

I have an LSM303DLHC Sensor Acceleration and Compass.  

According to the file RTIMULib.ini in /home/pi/pypilot the correct value for this sensor is IMUType 4. 

The thing is when I configure this value by hand in the mentioned file and go to the pypilot tab in openplotter the sensor is correctly detected and displayed. 

When I then change the pypilot status to IMU only and apply the change. The file RTIMULib.ini gets overwritten with a new value for IMUType = 13.

No matter what I tried so far the value gets reset to 13. 

Is anybody having an idea what could be the cause of this behavior and how I can get it fix on type 4. 

I use oppenploter v1.2 

Kind regards,
didi

I was able to fix pyplot to use IMUType 4 by editing boatimu.py by dsiabling auto detection. However I get the following error in the terminal where I started openplotter.

Using settings file RTIMULib.ini
Using fusion algorithm Kalman STATE4
IMU Name: L3GD20 + LSM303DLHC
min/max compass calibration not in use
Using ellipsoid compass calibration
Using accel calibration
Incorrect L3GD20 id 60
ERROR: IMU Init Failed, no inertial data available

Any ideas?

best regards,
