Re: SONAR Sensor Software Driver

Hi team 1153 posting. I would just like to extend a gracious thank you to everyone who helped, as we got our sonar up and running tonight. Now onto new problems. Our Sonar is giving us data in spurts so our Displays look like
Distance = 5
Distance = 0
Distance = 5
Distance = 0
Distance = 5
Distance = 0
Distance = 5
Distance = 0
Distance = 5
Distance = 0
etc.
Does anyone know why t has these jumps to zero? We followed through the code that it seems to be coming from Timer3 being equal to 0 at certain points, but we would like to know if that is the case or what is causing it to go to zero and if possible how to fix this issue. Many thanks team 1153.
