Tutorial: How to use the Tilt Vibration Sensor SW-18015P

This sensor helps you detect vibrations and tilts. Useful for motion and vibration projects.

What you need

• Arduino or compatible
• Connection cable
• Multimeter (optional)

Steps

1. 1. Connect the sensor to pin A0 of Arduino.
2. 2. Download the provided Arduino code.
3. 3. Load the code onto your Arduino.
4. 4. Verify the reading with a multimeter (optional).
5. 5. Try moving the sensor and observe the changes.
6. 6. Read the datasheet for advanced configurations.

Example code

```
#include <Wire.h>

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(9600);
}

void loop() {
  int value = analogRead(A0);
  Serial.println(value);
  delay(100);
}
```

Mini project

Create a vibration alarm. Connect the sensor to a relay and use the previous code to activate the relay when the sensor detects a vibration.

Common mistakes

• Connect the sensor to VCC and GND without A0.
• Forget to upload the code.
• Use unsupported pins.
• Ignore the pull-up configuration.

Recommended accessories

• Relay
• Power cable
• Acoustic alarm
