Vl53Lox failed to boot

Post by swembel »

Hi everyone!

Recently got my Adafruit VL53LOX. Using Arduino Uno, loading example code from library, I get the message ”Failed to boot”.

VL53L0X Info:
Device Name: VL53L0X ES1 or later, Type: VL53L0X, ID: 
Rev Major: 1, Minor: 15
Error expected cut 1.1 but found 1,15
VL53L0X Error: -5
Failed to boot VL53L0X

Soldering is fine.
What am I doing wrong?

Thanks!

Can you post a picture of your connections and the entire output of the serial monitor?

After changing the code as one of the admin says:
replace if (!lox.begin()) {
by if (!lox.begin(VL53L0X_I2C_ADDR, true)) {

I have the same issue. Arduino can detect i2c address but fail to boot VL53L0X.

I made the code substitution and got a lot more output but still failed to boot

Can you post the code you are running? Please use code tags when posting code or logs to the forums. It preserves formatting and makes it easier for everyone to read the code. Click the code button above the reply box and past your code between the tags created.

Was this ever resolved? I have the same problem with VL53LOX-v2
