MatLab GUI accelerometer reading DATA

Hello, as of right now i'm trying to read in accelerometer data to my MatLab gui thru a pushbutton.. So far here is my code

function pushbutton6_Callback(hObject, eventdata, handles)
%mapping between analog inputs and X,Y,Z axes.
        %     Xch = 1;
        %     Ych = 3;
        %     Zch = 2;
            fprintf(out.s,'R');
            %read voltages from accelerometer and reorder
            reordered(1)= fscanf(out.s,'%u');
            reordered(2)= fscanf(out.s,'%u');
            reordered(3)= fscanf(out.s,'%u');
            %determine what offset and gain values to use
            offset = calCo.offset;
            gain = calCo.g;
            accel = (reordered - offset) ./ gain;
            %map analog inputs to axes
            handles.gx = accel(1);
            handles.gy = accel(2);
            handles.gz = accel(3);
            guidata(hObject, handles)

This code was partially written for me. I'm trying to understand it since i've only been using matlab for 3 weeks. Can anybody help me what i'm doing wrong? I have a button for calibrating and a button for reading in the serial, but as of right now i'm trying to read actual data and later graph.

THANKS

FIrst problem fixed... scroll down below for the new problem I cannot seem to fix.. THANKS

Any suggestions?

You have not indicates the problem you are encountering.

[Amed]

I'm sorry, edited with the problem. Nothing happens when the pushbutton is clicked. There are no readouts nor errors.

[Walter Roberson]

Have you tried putting in a breakpoint at the first executable line of code, and running, and single-stepping to see what happens?

Your code does not display any values or change any gui elements, so it might not be obvious that it is running.

[Amed]

That is not the entire code. Here is the entire written code

% Begin initialization code - DO NOT EDIT
gui_Singleton = 1;
gui_State = struct('gui_Name',       mfilename, ...

                   'gui_OpeningFcn', @BW2_OpeningFcn, ...

                   'gui_LayoutFcn',  [] , ...
                   'gui_Callback',   []);
if nargin && ischar(varargin{1})
    gui_State.gui_Callback = str2func(varargin{1});
end

if nargout
    [varargout{1:nargout}] = gui_mainfcn(gui_State, varargin{:});

    gui_mainfcn(gui_State, varargin{:});

Pushbutton6 is where i'm trying to read in data. I've updated it if you see above.

[Amed]

OK so I got my accelerometer data to read out, but for some reason my Pushbutton7 won't close serial AS SEEN ABOVE in the code. It worked perfectly before, but now it won't.

I had to manually close it by ctrl+c and then some random graph popped up? How do I delete this graph?

Here is my code to run the data thru pushbutton6 % START DATA - PUSHBUTTON6 function pushbutton6_Callback(hObject, eventdata, handles)

%COMPORT
comPort = '/dev/tty.usbmodemfd121';

%READS SERIAL
if (~exist('serialFlag','var'))
 [accelerometer.s,serialFlag] = setupSerial(comPort);
end

%CALIBRATES
if(~exist('calCo', 'var'))
    calCo = calibrate(accelerometer.s);
end

%DEFINEING H AND BUTTON VARIABLES
if(~exist('h', 'var') || ~ishandle(h))
    h = figure(1);
end

if(~exist('button','var'))
    button = uicontrol('Style','pushbutton','String','Stop',...
                    'pos',[0 0 50 25],'parent',h,...
                    'Callback','stop_call_vector','UserData',1);
end

%READS DATA
while(get(button, 'UserData'))

      [gx gy gz] = readAcc(accelerometer,calCo);
  cla;

      r = sqrt((gx^2)+(gy^2)+(gy^2));
      gx
      gy
      gz
      r

end

any takers on the problem above

[Walter Roberson]

Note: the lines

guidata(hObject, handles);
handles.gx= 0;
handles.gy= 0;

should have the assignments before the guidata() call.
