/*
* The HC-SR04 module has an ultrasonic transmitter (40kHz) and a receiver.
* It is operated through two signal pins. When the transmit pin is set to 1
* for 10us, on the falling edge the transmitter sends a short transmission of
* 8 pulses (like a sonar 'ping'). This is reflected off objects and received
* by the receiver. A pulse is sent on the receive pin whose length is equal
* to the delay between the transmission of the pulse and the detection of
* its echo. The distance of the reflecting object is calculated by halving
* the time (to allow for the out and back distance), then multiplying by the
* speed of sound (assumed to be constant).
*
* This driver polls the HC-SR04 by sending the trigger pulse and then measuring
* the length of the received pulse. If the calculated distance is less than
* the threshold, the output _state returned by a read() call changes to 1. If
* the distance is greater than the threshold plus a hysteresis margin, the
* output changes to 0. The device also supports readAnalogue(), which returns
* the measured distance in cm, or 32767 if the distance exceeds the
* offThreshold.
*
* It might be thought that the measurement would be more reliable if interrupts
* were disabled while the pulse is being timed. However, this would affect
* other functions in the CS so the measurement is being performed with
* interrupts enabled. Also, we could use an interrupt pin in the Arduino for
* the timing, but the same consideration applies. In any case, the DCC
* interrupt occurs once every 58us, so any IRC code is much faster than that.
* And 58us corresponds to 1cm in the calculation, so the effect of
* interrupts is negligible.
*
* Note: The timing accuracy required for measuring the pulse length means that
* the pins have to be direct Arduino pins; GPIO pins on an IO Extender cannot
* provide the required accuracy.
*
* Example configuration:
* HCSR04::create(23000, 32, 33, 80, 85);
*
* Where 23000 is the VPIN allocated,
* 32 is the pin connected to the HCSR04 trigger terminal,
* 33 is the pin connected to the HCSR04 echo terminal,
* 80 is the distance in cm below which pin 23000 will be active,
* and 85 is the distance in cm above which pin 23000 will be inactive.
*
* Alternative configuration, which hogs the processor until the measurement is complete
* (old behaviour, more accurate but higher impact on other CS tasks):
* HCSR04::create(23000, 32, 33, 80, 85, HCSR04::LOOP);
