Checksums are automatically calculated and programmed. The first step in calculating 
the checksum is to add each byte from the field to the next subsequent byte. The 
second step is to take the 2’s complement of the first step. This value is the checksum.
Example: For a byte string of AA445Ch, the resulting checksum will be B6h.
AA = 10101010 
44 = 01000100
5C = 0101100
First step: add the bytes.
AA + 44 + 5C = 01001010
Second step: take 2’s complement.
10110101 +1 = 10110110
Checksum is 0xB6
