The accelerometer can be used to add to a counter. A shake of the device will trigger a count. The accelerometer can only be used to count one item at a time from the Single Counter View.
Using the Accelerometer to Count
- Select a counter from the Active Counter List to display the Single Counter View
- Press the Accelerometer button at the top of the screen.
- Sharply shake the device away from you. When jolted hard enough, the item will be counted.
- To stop using the accelerometer to count, press the Accelerometer button again.
Accelerometer Settings
The sensitivity and direction of shaking can be changed in the Accelerometer Settings.
- Select the Settings tab at the bottom of the screen.
- Select the Accelerometer Settings option.
- Adjust the Sensitivity slider to determine how hard the shake must be.
- Select the preferred Axis setting to monitor for accelerometer changes.
- To test the current settings, shake the devices. The test area will turn green when the accelerometer is triggered and a sound will be played.
