"Chris,
We have no further technical info for these switches. It depends if you are trying to detect a tilt in any direction. We have tested a switch and found that the switch tilt has a bias to certain pins. It is a matter of using a tester to find the best pins to use but we would suggest trying connecting one pin to high and taking its two adjacent pins to dig in's. Then in code, you can infer from the status of these two inputs what the direction of tilt is. Possibly connecting diagonally oppoiste pins to high might give improved results.
If you come up with a good solution, please share your findings with us."

"I'm curious of what your opinion is for the best way to wire these to a microcontroller.
I can think of a few different possibilities. After hooking the pins to my multimeter it seems like the ball sometimes only sits on 3 of the 4 pins (3 pins form the circle, so it's not a big surprise that one of the 4 pins sometimes doesn't touch the ball).
So, now I'm wondering which pins to use for contact. Or maybe tie some pins together.
Please advise how it's intended to be connected."
