when I use VL53L5CX and get a status, then check with the table, but I still need further description than can explain STATUS means what.

It's better like the picture below. Now I meet status 2, but I do not know why this happened.

Hello @MasterNi . 

  We are sharing similar problem. I have the feeling that with a comprehensive explanation of these codes, particularly those that are not self-explanatory, we could make some better sense of a significant amount of data. In a continuous automatic measurement system employing these sensors, we cannot assume human presence to address any contextual conditions not explained by these codes. However I also feel that we are trying to extract water from rocks by attempting to interpret these status codes beyond the provided information.

Please see these two posts already linked between them. There is an interesting answer from @Anne BIGOT , (and a promise too ;) :
