          If :meth:`start` was no called before, start will be called in the
          thread.
          The thread calls :meth:`receive_message` until the :attr:`state`
          :meth:`~AYABInterface.communication.states.State.is_connection_closed`.
  
          :param float seconds_to_wait: A time in seconds to wait with the
            parallel execution. This is useful to allow the controller time to
            initialize.
