new PID: last active port on splitter
Hello again!
Trying to provide a mechanism to know how the RDM net is phisically builded, I suggest a PID to ask a splitter wich port recieved the last message. Then, if you ping a device (perhaps with a status request or a mute command) you can subsequently ask the splitter wich was the last active port, and then you know where is the device phisically attached. Devices in the same port are presumibly in the same link. This idea relays on the assumption that a splitter has this a level of intelligeny to implement this capability and no transparent inline devices are present.
Thank you again, regards, Luis
