SRF08 Ultrasonic sensor and SX/B
Frasse
Posts: 11
Hi,
I wonder if anybody out there has used the Devantech SRF08 Ultrasonic Sensor with SX/B?
It is quite straight forward·to use the sensor with PBASIC but I fail to get it working with SX/B.
I assume I'm abusing the I2C-commands as the code compiles.
Any working code snippets or·suggestions would be welcome.
A simple testprogram for the SRF08 follows, (cut from the Devantech website - http://www.robot-electronics.co.uk/htm/srfxxbs2p.htm·).

I know what I know, don't confuse me with the facts...

The program·will read version number, light value and·range in cm's and send the·range values out an attached RS-232 port at 9600B as 5 ASCII characters followed by CRLF.
The program can also be used to show the values using WATCH during debug mode.
