Hello! This is Tom Bonar from MaxBotix Inc.
@PrinterBird
I see that you are using one of our LV-MaxSonar-EZ sensors in your application, and you are trying to use it to trip an Arduino at a set distance in your sketch. The distance that you mentioned of 2 inches, is not able to be done with our sensors. The LV-MaxSonar-EZ sensors have a minimum reported distance of 6 inches. This means that anything closer than 6 inches is reported as 6 inches. If you change your sketch to trip at 7 or 8 inches, your programming should work. The sensor will provide range data to the detected object from 6 inches to 255 inches.
Please let me know if you have any questions by emailing thomas@maxbotix.com and I will be glad to assist you.
Best regards,
Tom Bonar
