how do i test the gyroscope on my samsung galaxy tab s?

My Samsung Galaxy Tab S 10.5 has an intermittent problem.

When using it I find that the screen sometimes goes black for up to 30 seconds when the device is moved between portrait and landscape viewing positions and vice versa.
Often the slightest tilt of the screen away from portrait or landscape position is enough to turn the screen black.
This seems to happen after the device has been in use for at least 30 minutes although not always.

When it happens, none of the buttons work.
Attempting to restart it with the power button has no effect.
When the screen returns to normal it will sometimes flick to black again within a few seconds.
When the screen fully returns to normal it displays the application I was using before the screen went black initially.

Any ideas how I can fix it?

Many thanks
David

Have you looked in the Google Play store for any TEST apps that might include a gyro test?
