wayland/vl53l0x-time-of-flight/start-continuous

Start continuous ranging measurements, with the given inter-measurement period in milliseconds determining how often the sensor takes a measurement.
start-continuous
@/start-continuous
Start continuous ranging measurements, with the given inter-measurement period in milliseconds determining how often the sensor takes a measurement.
DEV@/vl53l0x-device
A VL53L0X device.
IMPnumber
Inter-measurement period (milliseconds). If zero, continuous back-to-back mode is used (the sensor takes measurements as often as possible); otherwise, continuous timed mode is used, with the given inter-measurement period in milliseconds determining how often the sensor takes a measurement.
UPDpulse
Trigger for starting continuous ranging.

DEV
IMP
UPD
DONE
DONEpulse
Pulse on start of continuous ranging.
To use the node in your project you should have the wayland/vl53l0x-time-of-flight library installed. Use the “File → Add Library” menu item in XOD IDE if you don’t have it yet. See Using libraries for more info.
