maxbotix ultrasonic sensor gpy

[marcbeltman]

I am trying to connect a maxbotix mb7060 ultrasonic sensor on my gpy.
For this I use documentation written for a raspberry pi
(https://www.maxbotix.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/074_raspPi.txt)
But it won't work.
I cannot translate the code to micropython
Does anyone have experience with connecting a maxbotix ultrasonic sensor to an gpy?
maybe an example?

This works fine for me:

from machine import UART
uartHeight = UART(1, baudrate=9600, pins=('G11', 'G12'))

while True:
    Data = uartHeight.read()
    if Data != None:
        Data = Data.decode()
        if len(Data)==6 and Data[0] == 'R' and Data[5] == '\r':
            print(Data[1:5] + "\r")
