If the calculated Lux values are assumed to be an absolute measurement of light, they shouldn't change when you change the range setting. But for example on a default range setting of 20661, the value returned by myAP3216.getAmbientLight(); is 62, After changing the range to 323, the value returned by myAP3216.getAmbientLight(); is 0.87. But the amount of ambient light didn't change, so if this is calculated lux it should also not change.

It is as though the lux calculations from the datasheet have already been applied to whatever value this library is retrieving from the sensor, and the library is then multiplying by the lux conversion factor again for a second time, when it shouldn't. Either that or the range setting isn't being properly applied in single shot mode, even though it is being used to calculate lux.
