Abstract
A system and method for operating a sensor which has at least two modes of operation. The sensor may be provided with one or more common operation steps to be used in both a first mode of operation and a second mode of operation. The sensor may also be provided with one or more dummy operation steps to be used in the second mode of operation but not the first mode of operation. The dummy operation steps can convert the first mode of operation to the second mode of operation when used with the one or more common operation steps.
