Examples

This example performs an ultrasonic range sample and then converts the sample from a timing into a measurement in millimetres.

FC6 Icon.png UltraSound Test

Downloadable macro reference

Fc9-comp-macro.png WaitForEcho
Waits until the echo has been received from the Ping macro allowing you to perform your own timing. 
Fc9-void-icon.png - VOID Return


Fc9-comp-macro.png MeasureDistance
Converts a micro second time from the ultrasonic range sensor and returns the range in mm, cm or inches. 
Fc9-u16-icon.png - UINT TimeDelay
Microsecond reading from Ultrasound module 
Fc9-u8-icon.png - BYTE Scale
0=MM / 1=CM / 2=Inch 
Fc9-u16-icon.png - UINT Return


Fc9-comp-macro.png Ping
Performs a transmit ping allowing you to monitor the incoming signal and perform your own timings maybe using a rising edge interrupt and a timer. 
Fc9-void-icon.png - VOID Return


Fc9-comp-macro.png SampleSensor
Sends out an ultrasonic ping and times how long it takes to receive the echo. Returns the time in microseconds. Performs the timing using software so depending on the speed of the micro will be an approximation. For better results use the Ping macro. 
Fc9-u16-icon.png - UINT Return
