Hello, I am trying to use lidar lite v3 by Garmin with IoT2020. I am using python library from here which I had successfully used with RPi earlier. I hooked up lidar to the GPIOs in respective pins as per Arduino Uno and i2cdetect shows my device at address 62. But when I run my python script to get distance, I received a constant number 9252 as an answer each time, no matter how close I keep any object. Initially, I though I had problem with my lidar, so I unpacked a brand new version. This time again I had a constant number each time, only that the response was now 9766 instead of 9252. I could not install smbus library so I had to install smbus2 and that is the only change I did to the lidar library. I am almost certain that this is not what the cause of problem is but I could be wrong here. By the way I am using python3. Any help will be greatly appreciated :) Many thanks! |
