Why the raw data detected by lidar are very small?

edit

In fact,my lidar data structure just look like this，I can see that the ranges column data is very small and not realistic, as if it were surrounded by a circle.:

nsecs: 777000000
frame_id: "hokuyo_link"

If I am not mistaken, the data in the ranges should represent the corresponding [angle, distance], thus ranging, the data should be like this:

seq: 25
stamp:
secs: 78
nsecs: 777000000
frame_id: "hokuyo_link"
angle_min: -1.57079994678
angle_max: 1.57079994678
angle_increment: 0.0175508372486
time_increment: 0.0
scan_time: 0.0
range_min: 0.0
range_max: 10.0
ranges: [10.0, 10.0, 10.0, 10.0,10.0, 10.0,10.0, 10.0, 10.0, 10.0,10.0, 10.0,10.0, 10.0, 10.0, 10.0,10.0, 10.0, 10.0, 10.0, 10.0, 10.0,10.0, 10.0,8.0, 8.0, 8.0, 8.0,8.0, 8.0,8.0, 8.0,8.0, 8.0,8.0, 8.0, 8.0, 8.0, 8.0, 8.0,8.0, 8.0,8.0, 8.0,8.0, 8.0,8.0, 8.0,.....]

My lidar settings are as follows:
Configured as:

    <sensor type="ray" name="head_hokuyo_sensor">

The data I get here is very small distance data, but the upper limit is 10m, which prevents me from getting distance information from the original data.And I am sorry that I can't upload an image.

How can I modify it to get normal lidar data?Thanks for your help！
