Parameters Settings

Go to the Parameters page in the Settings and enter the keyword TF in the search box to find it easily, and find SENSTFMINICFG to select a flight control serial port, as shown below

After restarting your device, you should see something like the following:

The parameters are described as follows:

SENSTFMINICFG //Select a flight control serial port

SENSTFMINNIMAXD //The maximum ranging setting for the x-th TF device in cm

SENSTFMINNIMIND //The minimum ranging setting for the x-th TF device in cm

ENSTFMINIROT //Set sensor orientation

Here, the serial port is set to TELEM2, the maximum distance is 4000cm, the minimum distance is 10cm, and the direction is forward, as shown below:

After restarting the device, the ranging value can be seen on the flight interface.

Data Test

Edit the data sheet below the QGC flight interface and add the range display value

Click the pen flag to enter the edit mode, and click the value to modify the display content and modify the display of the ranging direction value.

After modification, the display effect is as follows

Use and verification
