I have played with this command, it seems that only the low nibble of paramater
is useful. The interval range goes from 12.5ms for 0 to 3s for 0xf. Interval
seems to be roughly proportional to the square of the parameter. I have not seen
any behavior change for various high nibble values.

Here are my measured curves.

The fastest 12.5ms sample rate is quite high, maybe I can make a US-sensor
version of the NXTway afterall...

(...) I can confirm that the 0x2, 0x41, 0x0 "off" command does, indeed, turn off the clicking sound that you can hear coming from the US sensor. I can also confirm that the 0x2, 0x40, 0xNN "set measurement interval" command does set the measurement (...) (20 years ago, 22-May-06, to lugnet.robotics)
