PARAMETER_DESCRIPTION data type semantics - E1.20 RDM (Remote Device Management) Protocol Forums

Hi,

I have two questions:

1) the data type description refers to arrays rather than single elements. Does this mean, that given a data type of say DWORD, the PDLen must be a fixed multiple of 4 indicating a fixed size DWORD array or should it be always 4, indicating a single DWORD (and arrays are not allowed at all)

2) I have a lamp here that returns a PARAMETER_DESCRIPTION response with a PDlen=2 and 0x0006 as the actual data. Did I miss something or is this just plain wrong ?

Any help is appreciated

Best,
Tim
