The GP2D12 is not programmable. It is also an analog output
device which means you need an A/D converter to use it with a
Stamp.

If you prefer, we have a digital version of this sensor that connects
directly to a Stamp and includes sample code:

Acroname should have some hookup and code examples, and the spec sheet for
the device should give you a graph relating to distance versus output.

If you download the manual from the AIRRS (plain GP2D12) or
DIRRS+ (digital version) on our website, ther is a full discussion of
output vs. distance, including graphs and formulae for caluculating
it on the fly.
