The screen will show all sensor inputs as in the example below. For each sensor, an equivalent
voltage is shown in millivolts, along with the physical sensor value that that voltage refers to.
Pressure sensors are shown with physical values of [bar], angle sensors and slew sensors in degrees
and length sensors in feet (or meter for metric charts). At the bottom of the screen, the console
software version is shown.
