/products/raspberry-pi/b/blog/posts/setting-values-for-accelerometerCan anyone tell me how to set the values of a GY-61 ADXL335 accelerometer using a Raspberry Pi 2B? I am using it for a surveillance project to detect an accident and I need the values to be constant when the accelerometer is not moving.
