Good day! This is Tom Bonar from MaxBotix Inc.
I was looking through the Chief Delphi forum, and I have noticed that you were having difficulty getting the sensor connected to the cRio. You may wish to consider looking at the quick-start guide (
http://maxbotix.com/articles/016.htm) that we created last year. This guide has a walk through on connecting MaxSonar sensors to control devices. The fundamentals are the same for all MaxSonar sensors, with the big difference for connection purposes being the scaling factor of the Analog Voltage output. For calculating this output please view our Analog Voltage article (
http://maxbotix.com/articles/032.htm). We have examples for all of our sensors, as well as integrating directly with a 10 bit Analog Digital converter.
We have also kept the notes from last year's FIRST competition on our Facebook page (link to the 3 links from first email)
