Connect Ranger to a Digital port if you will be using DETECT mode.

Connect Ranger to your RoboRio using a 4-pin JST-PH to 3-pin Dupont cable.

Be sure to check your cable: The RoboRio pinout does not match Ranger's pinout pin-for-pin!

Connect Ranger to an Analog In port if you will be using 15°/20°/27° modes.

Connect Ranger to a DIO port if you will be using DETECT mode.

Configuring Ranger

There are two switches on Ranger. These two switches are used to determine which mode Ranger is in.

The mode is locked once Ranger is powered on, if you need to change the mode, disconnect power, change the mode, then reconnect power.

A switch state of 0 means the switch is closer towards the sensor, and 1 means it is farther from the sensor.

Below is a table of switch states and their corresponding mode, this information is also listed on the case:
