	~~{{ugAddressingInformation}}~~		===About===

	~~{{ugUsingYourOwnProgram~~\|~~DST1000}}~~		The DST1000 uses reflected infrared light to measure distance. Use this Phidget when measuring short distances or for detecting objects passing in front of the sensor. The sensor will measure distances from 4mm to 170 mm in optimal conditions with an accuracy of about 1mm.

	~~==Technical Details==~~

	===~~Out-of-Range Error~~===		===Explore Your Phidget Channels Using The Control Panel===
	The DST1000 will fire out-of-range error events when the reflected IR light doesn't reach the sensor, meaning the object is out of range. Objects that do not reflect light well might be harder to detect at greater distances.

	{{~~UGnext~~\|}}		You can use your Control Panel to explore your Phidget's channels.

			'''1.''' Open your Control Panel, and you will find the '''Distance Phidget''' channel:

			[[Image:DST1000_Panel.jpg\|link=\|center]]

			'''2.''' Double click on the channel to open an example program. This channel belongs to the '''Distance Sensor''' channel class:
