Sparkfun VL6180 Range Finder -- Help Please

[khannasusa]

Hi All Labview Experts

I am trying to play for VL6180 rangefinder connected to MXP I2C pins. 5V

I am unable to get this sensor to reliably give me readings. What am I doing wrong?

Appreciate all the help!

thanks

I would have to guess that you are writing to fast for this thing to keep up without being there to see what is going on. Add a 20 ms delay in the send loop to allow the device time to process. I am not sure if that is the problem but it might let you know if it is.
