1Introduction
The BWT61CL is a multi-sensor device detecting acceleration, angular
velocity and angle . The robust housing and the small outline makes it
perfectly suitable for industrial retrofit applications such as condition
monitoring and predictive maintenance. Configuring the device enables the
customer to address a broad variety of use cases by interpreting the sensor
data by smart algorithms.
BWT61CL’s scientific name is AHRS IMU sensor. A sensor measures 3-axis
angle, angular velocity, acceleration. Its strength lies in the algorithm which
can calculate three-axis angle accurately.
BWT61CL is an CE standard accelerometer. It is employed where the highest
measurement accuracy is required. BWT61CL offers several advantages over
competing sensor:
•Heated for best data availability: new WITMOTION patented zero-bias
automatic detection calibration algorithm outperforms traditional
accelerometer sensor
•High precision Roll Pitch Yaw (X Y Z-axis) Acceleration + Angular Velocity +
Angle
•Low cost of ownership: remote diagnostics and lifetime technical support by
WITMOTION service team
•Developed tutorial: providing manual, datasheet, Demo video, free software
for Windows computer, APP for Android smartphones
•WITMOTION sensors have been praised by thousands of engineers as a
recommended attitude measurement solution

1.1 Warning Statement
Putting more than 5 Volt across the sensor wiring of
the main power supply can lead to permanent damage
to the sensor.
For proper instrument grounding: use WITMOTION
with its original factory-made cable or accessories.
Do not access the I2C interface.
Do not change the baud rate because
WITMOTION BLUETOOTH sensor’s baud rate is
fixed.

2Use Instructions with PC
2.1 PC Connection
PC software is only compatible with Windows system.
BWT61CL Playlist
2.1.1 Serial Connection
Step 1. Connect the sensor with offered Type-C wire.
(Warm Reminder:If you wanna use a longer cable,it should be a standard
Type-C data cable)
Step 2. Unzip the software and install the driver CH340

*How to verify your driver is working
1）To check that the CH340 enumerates to a COM port, you can open the device
manager. You can click the Start or ⊞(Windows) button and type "device
manager to quickly search for the application.
2）After opening the device manager, you will need to open the Ports (COM &
LPT) tree. The CH340 should show up as USB-SERIAL CH340 (COM##).
Depending on your computer, the COM port may show up as a different number.
