Worse than that, the IR tower will not receive a message unless it is
currently powered up. Since the IR tower automatically powers down a few
seconds after transmitting data, you will not be able to receive data
unless the C program explicitly asks for it.

get set, it is not 50 data points unless you ask for 50 data points.
