Can it be determined that there is fresh data from the OI By detecting a change in the Packet Number?

The goal is to perform some actions only once when new data arrives.

Yes, I didn't think it was necessary at first, but ended up adding it later for exactly that reason. The number is just a byte so it wraps around, so just look for changes to know if a new packet is there.
