Library Description
The library initializes and defines the I2C bus driver and drivers that offer a choice for writing data in registers and reading data from registers. The library includes functions for full initialization chip with the procedure is written following the instructions from the datasheet. The user has the functions available for softReset, read distance and confidence distance value, Then functions for go to standby mode, go to off mode, go to on mode and measurement mode.
Key functions:
uint8_t lightranger3_init()
- Functions for initializes chipuint8_t lightranger3_takeSingleMeasurement()
- Functions for measurementuint16_t lightranger3_getDistance()
- Functions for reads distanceExample description
The application is composed of three sections:
void applicationTask()
{
lightranger3_takeSingleMeasurement();
Distance = lightranger3_getDistance();
IntToStr(Distance,DistanceTxt);
mikrobus_logWrite( "Distance =", _LOG_TEXT );
mikrobus_logWrite( DistanceTxt, _LOG_TEXT );
mikrobus_logWrite( " mm", _LOG_LINE );
Delay_ms( 300 );
}

Additional notes and information
Depending on the development board you are using, you may need USB UART click, USB UART 2 click or RS232 click to connect to your PC, for development systems with no UART to USB interface available on the board. The terminal available in all MikroElektronika compilers, or any other terminal application of your choice, can be used to read the message.
