.. zephyr:code-sample:: accel_polling
   :name: Generic 3-Axis accelerometer polling
   :relevant-api: sensor_interface

   Get 3-Axis accelerometer data from a sensor (polling mode).

Overview
********

This sample application demonstrates how to use 3-Axis accelerometers.

Building and Running
********************

This sample supports up to 10 3-Axis accelerometers. Each accelerometer needs
to be aliased as ``accelN`` where ``N`` goes from ``0`` to ``9``. For example:

.. code-block:: devicetree

  / {
  	aliases {
  			accel0 = &lis2dh;
  		};
  	};

Make sure the aliases are in devicetree, then build and run with:

.. zephyr-app-commands::
   :zephyr-app: samples/sensor/accel_polling
   :board: <board to use>
   :goals: build flash
   :compact:
