Hi,

This whole line is unclear. Can you say it in another way?

. . . and not to wait two days more that all devices be ready, . . .

Are you trying to say this:

Instead of waiting for all the devices to be ready in two days before running our tests, I suggest we start by running the first test as soon as the oven is available. To do that, we will need you to turn on the necessary monitors.

Expending any angst on this choice is merely rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic. You need to recast the whole sentence.
