1 Introduction The HWT9053 integrates high-precision gyroscopes, accelerometers, and MMC3630 magnetic field sensors. It uses high-performance microprocessors and advanced dynamics calculation and Kalman dynamic filtering algorithms to quickly solve the current real-time motion posture of the module. HWT9053 offers several advantages over competing sensor: •The use of advanced digital filtering technology can effectively reduce...
For proper instrument grounding: use WITMOTION with its original factory-made cable or accessories. Do not access the I2C interface. For secondary developing project or integration: use WITMOTION with its compiled sample code. HWT9053-RS485 | manual v0707 | http://wiki.wit-motion.com/english - 5 -...

Restore Factory Setting Operation method: Connect the HWT9053 to the computer through the USB to RS485 module, click the configuration option, open the configuration bar, and click "Reset". After restoring the factory settings, power on the module again. (This method needs to know the baud rate of the module in advance, if the baud rate does not match the instruction will not take effect.)
