i bought an ultrasonic proximity sensor kit. i was planning to attach it to my car until i found out that the range that i covered was not the one i wanted. is there and way that i could increase the range of my system?
i am currently using a MA40L 1R and MA40L 1S as my receiver and transmitter.
The one range finder sensor i worked was haing the reference voltage for the detection in it. I can able to increase or decrease the range according to reference voltage set.
Check out whether you are having that option or not. Try to reduce the reference voltage if it is there.
The datasheet is written in German. If you need any assistance translating it I'll be glad to help.
On the other hand - ultrasound transducers are pretty sensitive. I built a circuit some 30 years ago which reacted on moving an eye brow at 3m distance.
If you happen to have a cleaner circuit diagram this help more than 1,000 photos of the board.

I hope that this helps

I guess that's not the kind the OP is going for. Using it with the car I imagine he wants to use it as parking aid to measure distance between obstacles and the car.
