# TOFSense-M Serial Driver
|
||
|
|
||
|
TOFSense-M Serial Driver lua script. Only Copter/Rover/Plane 4.5 and above
|
||
|
|
||
|
## How to use - Pre-Configuration
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Connect sensors to one of autopilot's Serial port
|
||
|
- Set SERIALx_PROTOCOL 28
|
||
|
- Set SCR_ENABLE = 1 to enable scripting
|
||
|
- Set SCR_HEAP_SIZE = 150000 (or higher)
|
||
|
- If using the sensor as a 1-D Rangefinder (typically for terrain following); set RNGFND1_TYPE = 36 (Scripting) to enable the rangefinder scripting driver
|
||
|
- If using the sensor as a 3-D Proximity sensor (typically for obstacle); set PRX1_TYPE = 15 (Scripting) to enable the proximity scripting driver
|
||
|
- Reboot the autopilot
|
||
|
- Copy the TOFSense-M_Serial.lua script to the autopilot's SD card in the APM/scripts directory and reboot the autopilot
|
||
|
|
||
|
## How to use - Script Parameter Configuration
|
||
|
|
||
|
If everything above is done correctly, new "TOFSENSE_S_" parameters should be visible (only after script loads. Please refresh parameters if not visible). Script parameters to adjust are listed below. Any changes would require reboot
|
||
|
|
||
|
### TOFSENSE_S1_PRX
|
||
|
If you have set RNGFND1_TYPE = 36, then set this as 0
|
||
|
If you have set PRX1_TYPE = 15, then set this as 1
|
||
|
Any change in this parameter will require a reboot (or scripting restart), ignore any errors on change before reboot. Make sure RNGFND/PRX is configured before setting this.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### TOFSENSE_S1_SP
|
||
|
UART instance sensor is connected to. Set 1 if sensor is connected to the port with fist SERIALx_PROTOCOL = 28. For example, if SERIAL1_PROTOCOL = 28, and SERIAL2_PROTOCOL = 28, then setting this parameter 2 would assume the SERIAL2 port is attached to the sensor
|
||
|
|
||
|
### TOFSENSE_S1_BR
|
||
|
Serial Port baud rate. Sensor baud rate of the sensor can be changed from Nassistant software
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Advanced: Configuring more than one sensor on different Serial ports
|
||
|
|
||
|
It is not recommended to use this driver for more than one sensor. However, it is possible if you wish to do it.
|
||
|
Simply make a copy of the lua script, open it and change the first line "local sensor_no = 1" to "local sensor_no = 2" and upload that script along side the first script.
|
||
|
Once a reboot is done, new TOFSENSE_S2_ parameters should be visible which can be configured as described above.
