Mode C - Continuous
Mode C is the default setting for Hyperion.
Command example: #039;C02
In this mode the instrument will be set into a continuous output cycle of appropriately averaged and
filtered data.
Mode C02: (C zero 2) will output a reading every 2 seconds. This is the maximum synchronous
observation measurement period.
Mode C04: (C zero 4) will output a reading every 4 seconds but that will be a mean of 2, 2 second
synchronous observation measurement periods.

Mode M - Continuous Measurement
Mode M will perform a measurement and data output at the rate specified up to 16Hz.
Command example: #039;M8
Filter settings are appropriately set for the update rate.
M1: performs continuous measurements at 1Hz
M2: performs continuous measurements at 2Hz
...
M16: performs continuous measurements at 16Hz
