GOESData (Dest, Table, TableOption, BufferControl, DataFormat)
The GOESData instruction is used to transmit data to the SAT HDR GOES

Data Table declaration, it is inserted within the program, typically within the
scan.
Data transfer to the transmitter can occur via the datalogger's CS I/O port only.
