Additional Considerations
Please note that if you are using a sensor from the HR-MaxSonar, XL-MaxSonar-EZ,
XL-MaxSonar-AE, XL
‑
MaxSonar
‑
WR, or XL
‑
MaxSonar
‑
WRC series the voltage scaling
will not match that of the LV
‑
MaxSonar sensors. To find the voltage scaling of your
sensor reference the product datasheet.
Analog Voltage scaling for all of our product lines can be seen in our Using Analog
Voltage (Pin 3) tutorial. This tutorial also includes examples for using the Analog
Voltage output, as well as integrating with a 10
‑
bit Analog Digital Converter.
Please note the sensor resolution, for the LV-MaxSonar-EZ1 the resolution is one inch.
The LV-MaxSonar-EZ will, in general, range objects from 0 to 6 inches as 6 inches.
Which corresponds to 58.6mV when powered at +5V DC.
The LV-MaxSonar-EZ provides range for objects up to 254 inches away. Sensor will
report the closest detectable reflection from an object as defined by the sensor
beam pattern. You may view the beam pattern for the LV-MaxSonar-EZ here.
