    I’ve probably done something dumb in my code, but can’t see what it is, so I could use another set of eyes on it…

    I’ve got a MaxBotix MB7589 SCXL-MaxSonar-WRMT and have it communicating via NeoSWSerial on pin 7. Using the single_sensor.ino example, it works fine. Now I’m trying to integrate it a logging sketch, based on DRWI_NoCellular.ino, and I never get any readings displayed nor written to the SD card. Code is attached. If I comment the sonar_range variable out of the variableList, it works, and the remaining variables get successfully logged.

    Here is the debug output after turning on the debug flag in MaxBotixSonar.h:

    Thanks,
