The baud rate setting (BR) is responsible for the limitation of the
output rate. Please check the dependence of measuring
frequency/ output frequency with baud rate and data format of
serial interface output (SD) in the tables below. If measuring
frequency will be higher as the values in the table, some of the
measured distance values will be lost. Please double check with a
new setting of measuring frequency MF the BR setting.

The number of transmitted distance values is directly connected to
the parameters MF and SA (average):
Output rate = MF x SA
Example:
With MF = 1 and SA = 1000 one measurement is done every
second, but the output time is about 17 minutes (1000 s).
