Hi Jakob,

it is start-of-heading (SOH, 001). See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_character#Transmission_control [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_character#Transmission_control] It is a compromise for "non-data section of a data stream" :-) That is, the morph or form.

Best,
Marcel

What is an SoH character? Does not look like ASCII 001 is meant here.
