That is a very strange behavior from the Enttec USB Box. I have no idea why that is happening. Might be worth an email to Enttec to ask, they are typically pretty responsive.

No, your controller does not have to respond to discovery or to any other PIDs. In fact, I would say that it should *not* respond to them. Controllers send GET, SET, and DISCOVERY requests. They should never send GET_RESPONSE, SET_RESPONSE, or DISCOVERY_RESPONSE packets.


Corner Case: You could hypothetically build a system that has a controller and one or more responders bolted inside the same chassis. To the outside world, this would look like both a controller and a responder.
