Wait as short as possible after starting win32 sensor app 

Do not use a fixed 5 second delay after having a started a windows
sensor application, instead try to access the shared memory area
repeatedly and only give up after 10 seconds. Please note that for this
feature to be usable the sensor app must be found in PATH.
