Dear Jong,
Thank you for the information.
I do believe there is a big cross talk between the accelerometer
(probably for axis Z) and the battery readings. Did you ever experience
this issue? How to address it? I was trying to subtract a scaled value
of the axis Z to the battery readings but seems to not to work, i.e.
cannot model this cross talk as linear. Any ideas on it?
Sincerely,
Jose F. Mingorance-Puga

Hi Jose,
You will first need to convert the RAW ADC values. You can use the
following formula to do so
calibratedData=(uncalibratedData-offset)*(((vRefP*1000)/gain)/4095);
where offset = 0, vRefP=3, gain = 1;
VSenseBatt = calibratedData *2; % as the voltage is divided, multiply
it by two
Finally in order to *estimate* the battery capacity, you can use the
following table, which we've derived from the battery datasheet :-
*Remaining Capacity*
*Voltage*

Subject: [Shimmer-users] Monitoring battery levels
Hello,
I am trying to roughly monitor the battery levels of the shimmers,
shimmer2r.
I am reading the values of the analog channel 7 (AnEx7).
A part from the crosstalk and other interferences that might be in, what
are the common ranges of values expected after the AD converter?
I am getting something between 2400 and 2700 out of the AD.
What range should be considered as low charge, high charge?
Sincerely,
Jose F. Mingorance-Puga
