This basic principle applies to all network markers in all data formats.
Network markers overlap in the various data formats:
N1-8
N9-16
N17-
24
N25-
32
N33-
40
N41-48
N49-56
N57-64

NET station heartbeat
In order to make it possible for all NET stations within a group to be able to know
whether NET stations important to them are still communicating, each station cyc-
lically sends a heartbeat every second (1 s).
If a heartbeat is not received, the corresponding error bit ID01 – 08 will be set to "1"
until a heartbeat is detected.
