Table 5.2 - Padded 64 Channel Binary Data Packet
This binary packet is used when SET SIM == 64. When enabled, the packet size and structure will match a MPS4264,
64-channel binary packet, however will use padded data for channels not being used (pressure channels 33-64, tempera-
tures 5-8). This allows the same packet structure to be used for MPS4200 32 and 64 channel modules in the same software.
This packet is a total of 348 bytes.

This value will either be a time relative to 0 (when PTP is disabled),
or an absolute PTP time.
Array of 4 temperature values as read from the 4 RTDs.
Array of 32 pressure values. The float or integer is selected based on
the units (float = EU, integer = RAW).
