    Power supply must not exceed the range of 4.5…16 V  The default Baud rate for LRF 3013 modules is 57’600 Bd First range measurements can be performed by sending the software commands “>Md1<CR>” to the LRF module. To achieve a valid range result, aim at targets of at least 30 m distance and ensure that you hit the target and that no obstacles like closed windows are between the LRF and the target.
