5.4 Targets output status (Target Status)

The data message format for NRA24 system target output status is shown as in the table below.

The start sequence (0xAAAA) and termination sequence (0x5555) has been omitted for the

table, where the value of RollCount is continuously cycled between 0-1-2-3-0-1-2-3 ••••••.

When the PC or an external MCU cannot process the output data of the NRA24 sensor in time,

it will cause the received RollCount value to be discontinuous. At this time a faster removal

methods should be found to solve this problem.

5.5 Target output information (Target Info)

The target output message format of NRA24 is shown in the following table. The start sequence

(0xAAAA) and the termination sequence (0x5555) have been omitted from the table. When the

radar sensor works normally and detects the target, it outputs the NRA24 system status message,

and then outputs the target output status message, and finally outputs the target output

information message.
