• Group number to query: Only the most significant byte (MSByte) corresponds to the group
number. The 5 other bytes are not significant.
If the group number is 0xFF 0xXX 0xXX 0xXX 0xXX 0xXX, all modules that
receive the broadcast frame are authorized to transmit a response.

Status : = 0: reception OK
= 1: indicates that the number of received responses is higher than 255.
In this case, only the first 255 responses are forwarded to the host.
Frame index: This index is used by the Waveport CF to know how many responses are to
be forwarded to the host. This index is decremented on low-level
acknowledgement when the Waveport CF send a response to its host. The
host knows that all responses have been sent when the frame index is 1. By
ensuring that this value is properly decremented with each received frame,
this index is also used to confirm that no frames were lost.
