I have the X-NUCLEO-6180XA1 board working with an STM32G071 Nucleo board. However the range reading doesn't seem to change when the range to the object changes. If there is nothing in range, I correctly read 0x72 from the range status register, but...
Rev 7 of the VL6180X datasheet shows the SYSALS__INTEGRATION_PERIOD register at 0x040, however Version 2 of AN4545 changed the address of what presumably is the same register from 0x040 to 0x041. Which is it?Thanks.
The picture i uploaded is a screenshot from the datasheet. And according to the datasheet, Effective max convergence time depends on the actual convergence time plus readout averaging sample period setting. Please i want to know how to calculate the ...
I am using Pololu's adaptation of the ST library for Arduino. When I call VL53L1_GetCalibrationData() and print the optical center x and y values, I get 0x70 for both. How should I interpret this value? I've tested on an Arduino Uno as well as a MKRZ...
Hi allMy vl53l0x sensor is currently giving the "no update" status. The API only mentions that the error will not trigger. What does that mean?What could be wrong when this status is received and how could I resolve it?Thanks in advance
I was testing the returns from the VL53L1X to build up an algorithm for a project, and one of the edge cases is an object outside of a transparent 'wall'. Normally, when there is an object outside of the transparent 'wall', the sensor picks up the o...
I have a custom circuit board and below is my setupMCU: STM32L151C8T6Sensor: VL53L0XIDE: AtollicLanguage: CI came to notice that I must include the VL53L0X library to use it, and I'm having trouble doing so. I have downloaded the "en.STSW-IMG005.zip"...
I need to use multiple V6180x SATEL sensors to get distance measurements, however I do not know how to make it work directly through the I2C connection, since once connected the sensor is not even found by the I2C.Is it possible to use this sensor by...
HelloI'm trying to go from the frequency 30 Hz to the frequency 100 Hz and I used the manual that ST provides on this and I have the error code -18 which corresponds to#define VL53L1_ERROR_STREAM_COUNT_CHECK_FAIL ((VL53L1_Error) - 18)/*!< Stream...
Hello CommunityAfter a long time of figuring out the api and file structure, I got the I2C communication working. I copied the Single Range Measurement Example from the API-ZIP into my programm. Additionally I ran the I2C-Verification Code, which cam...
