Measurement modesSingle-shot and continuous measurement; repeated internal measurements for weak returns before reporting stable distance data.Single-shot mode reports one distance; continuous mode provides repeated results at the adaptive update rate.
Electrical pin functions
  • 1: GND, power ground;
  • 2: VCC, power input;
  • 3: I/O, reserved for expansion;
  • 4: TXD, module-to-host data;
  • 5: RXD, host-to-module data;
  • 6: SW-SHOT, function-enable input.
SW-SHOT control polarity must match the supplied configuration.
