If your board has been powered-off for more than 10 minutes, allow your computer to warm up for at least
15 minutes before acquiring outputting analog data with this board. This warm-up period is required for the
board to achieve its rated accuracy. The high-speed components used on the board generate heat, and it takes
this amount of time for a board to reach steady state if it has been powered off for more than 10 minutes.
