          Concentration - 4 byte floating point
          Number in PPM
          Flow - 2 byte integer in CC/min
          Point status - 1 byte
                    0x01 - point disabled in config
                    0x02 - point disabled now (It may have become disabled because of a fault.)
                    0x04 - point locked out
                    0x08 - low flow
                    0x30 - (2 bits) concentration summary integer. The meaning of this field is as follows:
                              00: 0.0 == Concentration
                              01: 0.0 < Concentration < AL1
                              10: AL1 <= Concentration < AL2
                              11: AL2 <= Concentration
                    0xC0 - (2 bits) current alarm level
                              00: no alarm
                              01: alarm level 1 active
                              10: alarm level 2 active

Example
The following example is an illustration of the above packet using serial communication
protocol version 2. The address of the slave is 42 (0x2A). Point 1 is in a level 2 alarm, but the
gas concentration has decreased below AL2 and AL1 to 42.2 ppb. The other three points are
reading zero concentration. The instrument fault relay is activated and point 4 is disabled
because of loss of flow. Both the Fault History and the Alarm History have new entries which
have not been read yet. Point 3 is configured to be disabled via menu function 3.1. All four
flows are near the norm of 180 cc/min except for point 4, which is 139 cc/min.
