It works fine on an Arduino.

We are coding in C++.
Here's a link to the Java code we had working last year (this was a V1 Lidar Lite connected to the navX-MXP I2C port, powered w/5V). https://github.com/kauailabs/kauaibo...ems/LIDAR.java

You may find something in there that helps.

Last year it only worked w/the MXP I2C port and not with the RoboRIO onboard I2C port.

Let me spend some time getting this to work again, this time using the 2016 RoboRIO Firmware; I'll let you know what I find, may take a day or two.
