Our engineering notes record baud='60' for this model.

ERDI laser rangefinder UART protocol facts (per model)

One row per ERDI 905 nm laser rangefinder module (23 models): protocol family, default baud rate, frame length, bytes of distance, the unit of one raw count, scale, out-of-range marker, documented range, and supported commands. Every value is transcribed from that model's own manufacturer manual; where the manual is silent the field is empty and the gap is written in notes. Nothing is extrapolated from a sibling model.

Why it exists: the catalogue is not uniform. The VB series reports millimetres, the H series centimetres and the A-family 8-byte frames metres x 10; reading the wrong unit is a 10x error. 5C 02 11 EC is 43.54 m on an H-series module and 4.354 m on a VB-series module.

Files

  • models.csv / models.json - the table (same rows)
  • protocol-A-55AA.md - 8-byte 55 AA command/response family, with the manual sentence behind every row
  • protocol-B-5C.md - free-running 5C data frames and 5A command frames

Use it with the open drivers (ErdiTech/erdi-lrf-drivers, pip install erdi-lrf) or to write your own decoder (live decoder: lrf-uart-protocol-decoder).
