I just bought MPU9150 IMF board and trying to get the data by connecting to my PC using Bluetooth, I used teapot application to start with. I connected board with PC using bluetooth and when I start application with COM port it just showing command window and GUI with tea pot but it is not moving, so seem like it is not connected but bluetooth showing it is. I put correct COM port for sure, I did following
1. Turn on MPU9150 board
2. Connect with my PC with Bluetooth
3. Start application with COM port#
can anybody tell me what I am missing, do I need to install any driver ? Does USB connection require while using this application ?

Re: Re: How to connect MPU9150 IMF
I found that you have to remove the USB cable for this to start working. Are both the blue and red LED's flashing?
Re: Re: How to connect MPU9150 IMF
I didnt connect with USB, it is connected with bluetooth , red light is always on, whenever there movement I am seeing blue light flashing. Do I need to install any driver or software ?
Thanks

Sorry, mine worked out the box with the Teapot demo. But I still had the USB cable in to charge the device and it wouldn't work until I removed the USB cable. What I've found is that, for the Python cube program, there seem to be multiple versions. It's the one in the MotionFit SDK v5.1.zip that worked for me. That zip file also contains the Teapot demo, so perhaps there are multiple versions of this too?
Re: Re: How to connect MPU9150 IMF
I had a similar problem using Windows 7 (64 bit). I also tried connecting the device via bluetooth but the teapot was kind of shaking then. To fix this problem I connected the MPU via USB (which I hadn't done before) and updated the drivers giving the MotionFit folder as driver location (including subfolders). Afterwards it was working. Maybe that works for you, too.
