CRBasic Example 2: CR300 program using the M1! command

'This program runs the M1! command that completes the NOAA ports and tides
'calculation. The length of time to respond to this command will depend on
'the number of measurements the user configures the sensor to collect. The
'default is 360 measurements based on the NOAA specification. The sensor can
'be set to collect up to 360 measurements. The command then returns the
'average stage, standard deviation of the stage measurements, number of
'outliers, number of good readings, battery voltage at the sensor, and error
'code.
