Using the Xtrinsic FXOS8700CQ Accelerometer and Magnetometer Vector-Magnitude Function

I'd like to automatically detect that the Neo is moving (or that it is not moving). Am I correct in reading in this document [https://cache.freescale.com/files/sensors/doc/app_note/AN4458.pdf] that the FXOS8700CQ has functions built in to do so? Also, they are not presently accessible with the current library, are they?

 

If I read this thread it is not an issue of library but of (interrupt) pin assignment.

 

Would be a simpler alternative to do an abs() of every axis value and see if deviates too much. The placement of the Neo would be like a book on the table. I'd like to detect movements like shifting or lifting, even for a few centimeters.

 

The motion sensor docs state:
