# Sonar
A sonar sensor can be used to measure altitude for use with BARO and SONAR altitude
hold modes.
The sonar sensor is used instead of the pressure sensor (barometer) at low altitudes.
The sonar sensor is only used when the aircraft inclination angle (attitude) is small.
## Hardware
Currently the only supported sensor is the HCSR04 sensor.
## Connections
### Naze/Flip32+
| Mode | Trigger | Echo | Inline 1k resistors |
| ------------- | ------------- | ------------- | ------------------- |
| Parallel PWM | PB8 / Motor 5 | PB9 / Motor 6 | NO (5v tolerant) |
| PPM/Serial RX | PB0 / RC7 | PB1 / RC8 | YES (3.3v input) |
Current meter cannot be used in conjunction with Parallel PWM and Sonar.
### Olimexino
| Trigger | Echo | Inline 1k resistors |
| ------------- | ------------- | ------------------- |
| PB0 / RC7 | PB1 / RC8 | YES (3.3v input) |
Current meter cannot be used in conjunction with sonar.
