That is, the number of response content bytes is 20. The response is a single response, the type code
is 04, the type of response content meets the following data structure:
FIG 9 YDLIDAR F4PRO DEVICE INFORMATION RESPONSE CONTENT DATA STRUCTURE
Model:1 byte, F4PRO's model code is 04;
Firmware Ver.:2 bytes. The low byte is the major version number, and the high byte is the
minor version number;
Hardware Ver.:1 byte, representing hardware version;
Serial number:16 bytes, unique factory serial number.
Health status [A5 91]
When an external device sends a Get Device Health Status command to the F4PRO (A5 91), F4PRO
will feedback the device's status code. The reply message is:
FIG 10 YDLIDAR F4PRO HEALTH STATUS
According to the protocol resolution: response length = 0x00000003, answer mode = 0x0, type code
= 0x06.
That is, the number of response content bytes is 3; this response is a single response, and the type
code is 06. This type of answer content satisfies the following data structure:
FIG 11 YDLIDAR F4PRO HEALTH STATUS
Status code: 1 byte, 0x0 means the device is operating normally. 0x1 indicates a device
operation warning. 0x2 indicates a device operation error.
Error code: 2 bytes. When a warning or error status occurs, the specific error code will be
recorded in this field. 0x00 indicates that the device is running without error.
Low power consumption [A5 01]
When an external device sends a low-power enable command (A5 01) to the F4PRO, the F4PRO
automatically enters a low-power state in idle mode (in standby: the motor is stopped and the ranging
unit is powered down), reducing standby power consumption. The reply message is:
