- Grove template: Grove-Ultrasonic_Ranger.md
- Platform template: Seeeduino_v4.2.md
- Shield template: Base_Shield_V2.md
- Kits template: LoRa_LoRaWan_Gateway_Kit.md
-
Step 2. Edit the title by following below rules.
title: Grove - Ultrasonic Ranger # Please do not use Space and NOT **_**.
category: Sensor # Define the category, such as Arduino, Raspberry and so on.

oldwikiname: Grove - Ultrasonic Ranger # Ignore
prodimagename: 350px-Ultrasonic_Ranger.jpg # Ignore
surveyurl: https://www.research.net/r/Grove-Ultrasonic-Ranger # Ignore
sku: 101020010 # Define SKU
tags: io_3v3, io_5v, plat_duino, plat_pi # Ignore
- Step 3. please follow below structures to design the wiki.
