Yes, it was getting a register frame: the first hex digit for the first
register was 'E' !
Good idea about the lowercase.
Thanks

remote_send is only used in four cases: p/P and g/G. If you
encountered it in one of those, I suggest sending back lowercase
hex rather than uppercase hex.
That does not invalidate your correct report; merely a suggestion.
