Creates a new instance of BlankRecord

 public BlankRecord(short id,
    short size,
    byte[] data) 
{
        super(id, size, data);
}

Constructs a BlankRecord and sets its fields appropriately

Parameters:

short - id must be 0x201 or an exception will be throw upon validation

short - size the size of the data area of the record

byte - [] data of the record (should not contain sid/len)

 public BlankRecord(short id,
    short size,
    byte[] data,
    int offset)

}

Constructs a BlankRecord and sets its fields appropriately

Parameters:

short - id must be 0x201 or an exception will be throw upon validation

short - size the size of the data area of the record

byte - [] data of the record (should not contain sid/len)

offset - of the record's data
