    • Question about sonar sensor(distance sensor) in voxl2

      I’m trying to integrate a MaxBotix MB1242 (I2C sonar) with VOXL2 and use it in PX4, but I’m running into some issues and would appreciate your guidance.

      Hardware setup:

      VOXL2
      VOXL 2 Ethernet and USB Hub Add-on (MDK-M0062-3-00)
      MaxBotix MB1242 (I2C)
      Connected via VOXL2 J19 I2C port

      Current situation:

      voxl-rangefinder-server is disabled / not running
      In QGroundControl, I cannot find the parameter SENS_EN_MBXX
      As a result, PX4 does not seem to receive any rangefinder data

      Questions:

      Does VOXL2 currently support MaxBotix I2C sonar sensors like the MB1242 through voxl-rangefinder-server?
      Is additional configuration or driver support required to enable MB12xx sensors on VOXL2?
      Are there any recommended steps to make the sensor visible (e.g., enabling specific services, modifying config files, where to connect)?
      Any guidance or example setups would be greatly appreciated.

      Thanks in advance!
