s = sign bit (0 = positive, 1 = negative)
e = exponent bits (8)
f = fraction bits (23)
Normal byte order shown. For swapped byte order, bytes sent
in reverse order: Header, Byte 4, Byte 3, Byte 2, Byte 1.
The Header is only sent once for each measurement conversion.

Normal byte order shown. For swapped byte order, bytes sent
in reverse order: Header, Byte 8, Byte 7 -- Byte 1.
The Header is only sent once for each measurement conversion.
