1. If you look in the doc, there does not appear to be a 'signature' in the OI packet or any of the 3 RC packets. I think all 4 are transmitted (Switch the jumper). But how does the software know this?

2. If you set user bytes 2 and 3 to 0xFF, some software might confuse this with a beggining of a new packet.

So quoting yourself did not answer my questions/concerns. Again, I am suggesting posibilities which may (Or may not) need to be acounted for.
