Start-up of the instrument begins when power is supplied. While a self-test is being
performed, it may take up to 30 seconds for the sensor to initialize and be identified.
Changes to the settings can not be made until the BB2 control box has recognized the
sensor. When recognized, the sensor will appear in the display mode.
