I installed and configured a new MPU-9250. I leveled the boat and pressed boat level in OpenPlotter. I am currently running version 1.2.0 alpha of Openplotter.
I am seeing values from the MPU-9250 but they seem to be off by a factor of 10. For example, right now I am showing 0.1 degree to starboard. When I compare this to my calibrated digital level on my phone as well as another phone they both show around 1 degree to starboard.
When I lean the boat to what I believe is closer to 5 degrees based on my inclinometer and the two phones, OpenCPN shows about 0.5 degrees.
I have checked in the SK Diagnostic windows on Openplotter and it appears the same as in OpenCPN.
This appears to be the case for Pitch as well.
Any advice would be helpful. Did I set something up incorrectly?
