FSE1001 User Guide

4.2 User integration

If you are not using our user interface, please note that the FSE1001 will continuously stream data through

the USB cable as soon as the cable is plugged in. However, no data is saved within the sensor itself.

4.2.1 Connection

The FSE1001 is seen as a serial device (COM port) when plugged into a computer. Since the sensor uses

a USB CDC to emulate serial communication through USB protocol, no settings need to be speciﬁed when

opening the serial port.

4.2.2 Commands

Two types of data can be sent by the sensor:

• calculated forces

• raw values used to calculate the forces

By default, the FSE1001 sends the calculated forces as soon as the cable is plugged in. You can switch

between the two modes by sending the following command:

Table 4.1: Commands of the FSE1001

Name Command

[Default] Stream calculated forces ’f’ or ’F’

Stream raw values ’r’ or ’R’

Initialize sensor ’z’ or ’Z’
