## Fields
| Name | Type | Unit [Frame] | Range/Enum | Description |
| ---------------------- | --------- | ------------ | ---------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| timestamp | `uint64` | | | time since system start (microseconds) |
