Option D - Diagnostic Information for Sensors
Menu option D provides network diagnostic information for each sensor for monitoring

data packet. Diagnostic information could be used to determine if additional repeaters
are needed to meet certain network specifications such as having more than one path
to the gateway or potentially reducing the number of hops to the gateway.
