+ * @brief Example H:  Using SDI-12 in Slave Mode
+ *
+ * Example sketch demonstrating how to implement an arduino as a slave on an SDI-12 bus.
+ * This may be used, for example, as a middleman between an I2C sensor and an SDI-12
+ * datalogger.
+ *
+ * Note that an SDI-12 slave must respond to M! or C! with the number of values it will
+ * report and the max time until these values will be available.  This example uses 9
+ * values available in 21 s, but references to these numbers and the output array size
+ * and datatype should be changed for your specific application.
+ *
+ * D. Wasielewski, 2016
+ * Builds upon work started by:
+ * https://github.com/jrzondagh/AgriApps-SDI-12-Arduino-Sensor
+ * https://github.com/Jorge-Mendes/Agro-Shield/tree/master/SDI-12ArduinoSensor
+ *
+ * Suggested improvements:
+ *  - Get away from memory-hungry arduino String objects in favor of char buffers
+ *  - Make an int variable for the "number of values to report" instead of the
+ *    hard-coded 9s interspersed throughout the code
