In other words is it essential to manually change the rangefinder’s mode from UART to I2C for it to work? I ask because the course’s uart option isn’t working for me.
I don’t know if you have the same setup but the results of a search for “TFmini Plus and Navio 2 pinouts” (no quotes) shows my experience with the TFmini Plus. Hope this helps.
Thanks so much for your willingness to help. I accidentally bought the wrong i2csplitter so will have to try again to buy one that’s compatible. Thereafter I’ll be able to try your suggestion. Cheers
