CA-SDK axes reversed

By tt_dev123 , 9 September 2014

Hi

I'm using the CA-SDK board and the python cube demo to read out the data.

I’m holding the CA-SDK board flat with the JTAG connector in the right corner. In the "PS-MPU-9250A-00 Product Spec v1.0.pdf" section 9.1 there is a picture with the orientation of the axes. So this means that the X-axes goes to the right and Y-axes away from me.

So when I rotate the CA-SDK board around the Y-axes, the 1ste column of the gyroscope data changes. (I suppose this is the x-axes?).
When I rotate around the X-axes, the 2nd column of the gyroscope data changes. (This is normally the y-axes?). If I rotate around the X-axes in the +direction, the data of the gyroscope changes -, a rotation in de –direction gives a +change of the gyroscope data.
A rotation in the Z-axes is correct.

It looks like the x and y axes are switched, how is this possible?

Thanks in advance.
