Hi,
I have a teraranger one distance sensor, and I’m trying to integrate it to a px4_fmu-v5 flight controller. I’m using firmware 1.14 beta.
For the integration I am following this documentation https://docs.px4.io/v1.13/en/sensor/teraranger.html using the teraranger i2c converter. However, it looks like the sensor it is not correctly detected.
Here’s some logs from the terminal when I run i2cdetect -b 1
and dmesg
. It says no instance of teraranger is found despite being connected to the I2C A port through the i2c converter
i2cdetect -b 1
Scanning I2C bus: 1
