=== Type Frame ===
=== Type Frame ===
The Type frame, the first frame in a Gesture, is a 1 bit frame that determines whether a Gesture is a request from one board to another, or a response from one board from a prior request. This frame is a 0 for a request, and a 1 for a response.
The Type frame, the first frame in a Gesture, is a 1 bit frame that determines whether a Gesture is a request from one board to another, or a response from one board from a prior request. This frame is a 0 for a request, and a 1 for a response.
=== State Flags Frame ===
The 7 bits following the Type bit are the State Flag bits. This 7-bit frame allows transmitting boards to provide specialty signals to the receiving board. A low bit indicates a flag that isn't down, while a high bit indicates a raised flag. The current flags are as follows, from LSB to MSB.

|High Priority
|Low Priority
|No Override
|Reserved

The flags are defined as follows:
* '''High Priority''': The board receiving the request should cease all operation immediately and respond to the request before continuing.
* '''Low Priority''': The board receiving the request can wait to respond to the request until the most convenient.
* '''No Override''': The board receiving the request has no choice but to comply with the request sent -- it should not exert any effort attempting to question or combat the transmitting board. If this flag is low, a board receiving a request has the ability to ask the transmitting board for clarification or request a re-consideration. If this flag is high, the receiving board should execute the request regardless.
Flags are stacking, meaning multiple flags can be high. For example, a high high-priority flag and high no-override flag means a board not only must comply without question, but it should do so immediately prior to continuing any of its standard operations.
