From what I understand the whole series is primarily a tilt sensor, with the only difference between the chip numbers being the I²C address they respond to.
datasheets says those two registers is the instaneous orientation reading, but none of the suggested applications uses more than the status tilt-orientation & shake bits.
I doubt this series of accelerometers are intended for any detailed readings of orientation as needed for making a air mouse / game controller type application.
can you recall which manufacturers do something more appropriate?
