Troubleshooting

The rangefinder module may experience communication failures or abnormalities due to various factors, including power supply issues (voltage instability, poor grounding), connection problems (loose wiring, damaged cables), protocol mismatches (incorrect baud rate, firmware incompatibility). Troubleshooting should involve verifying power stability, inspecting connections, confirming protocol settings, and checking signal quality with appropriate tools like multimeters or oscilloscopes. For more information, please refer to our insights on Laser Rangefinder Module Not Working? Issue 1: Communication Breakdown

Possible reasons for invalid rangefinder readings include signal interference, low target reflectivity, incorrect configuration, or hardware faults—check environmental noise, target properties, parameter settings, and hardware health.

False alarms may be caused by environmental interference (e.g., dust/rain, noise, strong light), reflective clutter, incorrect threshold settings, or sensor malfunctions.

Insufficient ranging capability may result from weak signal reflection (low-reflectivity targets), environmental interference (fog/dust), low battery power, or sensor degradation over time.

Possible causes of rangefinder inaccuracy include: target reflectivity mismatch (replace non-reflective targets), operator error (re-aim properly), instrument calibration issues (use certified calibration tools), or low lens transmittance (replace/readjust optical window per specifications).
