Warm up time
In general, the warm up time is the waiting time between the activation of a sensor and the execution of
the reading. For example, in the case of using a TTFM module, this is a time necessary for the propagation
of ultrasound to stabilize so that the reading is as accurate as possible.
It makes sense to talk about warm up time during discontinuous operating mode: it is in these conditions,
in fact, that the sensor power supplies are turned off and on to allow the greatest possible energy savings.
During continuous mode, however, the sensors always remain powered and therefore always ready.
For the correct operation of the instrument it is necessary to satisfy some time constraints related to the
chosen sampling time and cleaning time.
By setting the sampling per minute, it is easy to guess that a warm-up close to or greater than one minute
is not possible: in these conditions,

would not be able to go into sleep mode between one
reading and another.
EasySetup does not allow to save times that cannot guarantee the correct sampling of the
variables, warning and proposing a possible solution to the problem.
