Could anyone tell me what type type of accuracy/precision you get from the vector2x compass? Does it just return n,s,e,w,nw,ne,se,sw, or a byte? Is there a datasheet somewhere on the web? Thanks for the info! -=Fred Cass=- (27 years ago, 15-May-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Hi Fred, I have an idea! I was wondering if it would be too much trouble to zip all the pictures up into one file so some of us can ftp it.
