max_detector is the integer value of the detector with the maximum voltage on it. This value will always be 2
digits and can range from 01 to 35. The location of the maximum detector voltage is useful for determining
vertical alignment on smooth surfaces only. Refer to the alignment section in the manual.
sum_voltages is the sum of all voltages from detectors 01 to 35. The value will be 7 characters in length
(including the decimal point character) with padding zeros on either end when necessary, and always followed
by a comma.

@05 Request Ra Value
Returns Ra values when the start input pin is activated, waiting for stop input.
Stop trigger input is Digital IN 2 or Pin 2 of connector J7. Stop conversions when pin is activated.
@05#<cr-lf> Returns a single @05 response. If continuous mode was running, it now quits
