By this definition the angles in the normal position of the device on the table are not (0°,0°,0°),
but (0°,90°,--). The roll angle is 0°, since the z-axis shows in the direction of the axis of the Earth.
The pitch angle is 90°, since the x-axis is standing vertically to the axis of the Earth (namely
horizontal). The yaw angle (rotation around the z-axis) cannot be determined, since the
gravitational acceleration for both reference axes (x- & y-axis) is almost zero.

Inclination curves record the inclination for further 8 seconds as course of the curve after an
inclination event.
Inclination events often superimpose with acceleration events in reality. Check in case of
inclination curves, if the magnitude has a course of approximatively 1 g. If this is the case, this is
a “gentle tilting” without jerky movements (see Figure 19). In the other case, a “vibration” or a
similar jerky process has triggered the inclination event.
For inclination curves, also the angular display is available.
