Sensor tolerance?

I am not familiar with these particular sensors or their use within the A320 systems. Any individual sensor will have a certain tolerance so I would not expect them to read exactly cosine(pitch attitude) as expected when sitting on the ground. For very accurate comptuation of normal acceleration there is probably some equalization logic that looks at multiple sensors and has logic to identify and correct for sensor error/bias.
