High Speed Mode

This command increases the channel scan rate to allow higher throughput. The default channel
processing time is decreased from 22 milliseconds/channel to 13 milliseconds/channel. The
increased scan rate reduces accuracy by approximately fifty percent and will cause some boards
to exhibit slightly increased noise levels.

A board reset (hard or soft) will always restore the board to the default scan rate. A board reset is
the only way to resume the default scan rate after invoking the High Speed Mode command.

COMMAND: (240), (8), (0)
RESPONSE: NONE
