Checksum calculation

This checksum is the same as the IP checksum.
Definition: sum of 1's complement of all 16 bits words of whole message
(FiveCo packet) except checksum bytes.
Note: all values are unsigned!
Sequence:
1. Clear accumulator
Loop
x. Only if last word is not made of two bytes, the data byte is the upper byte (big endian)
2. Compute 1's complement of each 16bits word, result is 16bits
3. Convert last result from 16 bits to 32 bits, result is 32bits: 0x0000+last result
4. Add last result to the 32 bits accumulator
Try the Loop
5. Convert accumulator in two 16bits words
6. Add those two 16bits words, result is 16bits word.
7. If an overflow occurs with the last addition (Carry), add 1 to the last result.
8. Last result is the final result
Example (in hexadecimal):
!0x0021
(0XFFDE)
+!0x1234
(0xEDCB)
+!0x0003
(0xFFFC)
+!0x0A10
(0XF5EF)
+!0x02(00)(0XFDFF)
Note that in this case a last 00 is implicitly used. (02
0x0004 + 0xE193 = 0xE197, (carry=0)
0 xE197 + carry
Checksum = 0xE197
0x0000FFDE (Read)
0x0001EDA9 (TransID)
0x0002EDA5 (3 reg to read)
0x0003E394 (reg 0A,10,02)
0x0004E193
= 0xE197
02 00).
