VL53L0X: How do I change the lower threshold of measurement using the B-L465E-IOT01A1 API for this sensor?

I am trying to change the lower measurement threshold of this sensor so that it will only send proximity data above a certain distance. I am quite new to using ToF sensors and am not sure where to start, I have looked over the documentation and am still quite lost, any help would be greatly appreciated!

We call it 'threshold'. There is an API that will allow you to set the threshold so that when a target come closer than the threshold, it will interrupt the host and start reporting data. And you can use this same threshold to only send data when the answer is greater than the threshold.
