Re: sonar is being lame
Are you using labview or windriver?

Use either the vex kit one of the maxbotics one.

The vex kit one should have two pwm's on it one is the ping channel and one is the echo channel. Wire each of these to a digital port on the sidecar. I don't know what environment you are using.

The Maxbotics one can either be wired for serial, digital, or analog (although you can't really use serial this year), digital should also have 2 pwm's, analog should have 1. Our team is using this sensor wired for digital.
