+'''In ArduPilot 4.7 the distance values were moved to float to
+facilitate supporting rangefinders with more than 327m of range.
+
+The dataflash Replay log messages changes to support this.
+
+This script will take an older log and convert those messages such
+that older logs can be replayed with newer code.
