=== Data Frame ===
The data frame carries the entirety of the request or response. This frame is variable in length, and can be as little as two bytes (at a minimum) or as much as 500 bytes (although this isn't a strict limit, but messages should seldom exceed 500 characters).
The data frame, in order to accommodate the large variety of possible data types that might arise in the HONEY architecture, is encoded strictly in ASCII characters as a char buffer. This allows boards to send messages as character strings -- STINGR is designed to understand and decode standardized messages, but this framework allows boards to send absolutely any data.
The data frame can be empty -- in this case, it consists of two bytes. These are the start and end bytes, which designate the start and end of the data payload. The start byte has a value of 256, and the end byte has a value of 255. The data frame spec can be seen here:
{| class="wikitable"
|Start Flag (1 byte - 11111111)
|Payload (0-498 bytes)
|End Flag (1 byte - 11111110)
|}
