Monarch Accelerometer 3-axis ±200 g

PDF datasheet and reference files.

Description. The Monarch-Accel-200g (#BE-MAC1) is a simple, rugged, compact digital accelerometer that measures up to ±200 g in three axes simultaneously, while outputting a data stream via USB. It is small enough to fit into tight spaces, and has a rigid mechanical design with mounting flanges. The #BE-MAC1 is typically used to measure moderate-level shock and vibration events. Filtering is easily programmable. The #BE-MAC1 connects via a USB-C cable (included). This provides power and communications.

The Monarch family is simple to use. Just connect the USB-C cable. Use any serial port terminal emulation software that you prefer (PuTTY, Tera Term, etc.) See User Guide for the simple instruction set. For PC, Mac, Linux, Raspbian, etc. No complicated, messy app installs. No subscriptions. No ‘ecosystem’. Just reliable data.
