DESCRIPTION: The command “bw” displays the parameter “” setting.
The parameter “” stipulates the waiting time in seconds that
the boot operation is delayed before the application is loaded and
started. No values other than these are supported.

(U) flashes at the rate of two times a second. Therefore, if the boot
wait is set to 1 second the LED will only flash two times.
