"Somewhere on the wiki (I'm not quite sure where) we specify how to setup the AP_Periph rangefinders " not that I can find...perhaps a note in the https://github.com/ArduPilot/ardupilot/blob/master/Tools/AP_Periph/README.md? for anything a bit strange like this rangefinder stuff?we dont have a lot of detail in the dev section other than params and general stuff....more info could be added but just a note on thos would be out of place and context without more extensive info on AP peripherals internal param setups for other devices also
Somewhere on the wiki (I'm not quite sure where) we specify how to setup the AP_Periph rangefinders and specify that the RNGFNDx_ORIENT should be "0" on the AP_Periph side. This is fine but we should also clarify that the RNGFNDx_MIN_CM and RNGFNDx_MAX_CM need to be set on both the AP_Periph side and within within the Autopilot flight code parameters.
The parameters should be consistent as well and while it's sad users need to set the MIN/MAX in both places, it is necessary because they're used for different things.
