Help with setup

[pascalmtts]

Hi, i tried to use this configuration but i am not able to make it work. Is there anything I am missing? I only get this line in the logs:
[19:53:51][D][sensor:092]: 'tof distance avg': Sending state 0.00000 mm with 0 decimals of accuracy

I am using an ESP32. Is there any special wiring I have to note? I am able to get distances with other libraries on the ESP32 with this sensor so I think my setup should work basically.

It looks like there is a problem with the VL53l1x on ESP32. I will try with a ESP8266 when i get it.

[RomanKlein777]

did it work? I am doing the same ESP32. wondering if my 160MHz CPU was problem, I have used standard 240Mhz. I will test ESP32 and i2c anyway with other board so will see if all works. by the way, are you using D21 SDA and D22 SCK? also do not forget to remove protective foil from sensor (yellowish).

enabled verbose logging - something should be in logs saying that i2c is OK/NOK: in my case i see "invalid state sda"
