LIS3LV02DQ

After KamPutty SPI code, I can finally read the data from the Accelerometers(LIS3LV02DQ).

But there is another problem- when Accelerometers stay still on my desk, my data is a little strange, as following data.
Code:
[1428] X=141 Y=-334 Z=16885
[1429] X=140 Y=-334 Z=16890
[1430] X=141 Y=-334 Z=16878
[1431] X=140 Y=-332 Z=16885
[1432] X=140 Y=-334 Z=16881
[1433] X=141 Y=-332 Z=16878
[1434] X=141 Y=-335 Z=16884
[1435] X=139 Y=-332 Z=16881
[1436] X=141 Y=-334 Z=16893

Is that normal when it's still, or I need to find another way to calibrate it ?

Looks like real data to me. Assuming you have set the sensor for +-2G full scale,

Z = is obviously measuring the acceleration due to gravity (1G = 16384). The other non zero values would be due to the minor inclination of the sensor from horizontal and minor offset error.
