The S_BLOCK_WRITE (0x30) command sends a stream of bytes to the dive computer. Because the payload has no fixed length and there is no length field included, the hwOS firmware detects the end of the stream by means of a 400ms timeout. Therefore the ready byte is always delayed by this 400ms timeout. The same remark applies to the DISPLAY (0x6E) and CUSTOMTEXT (0x63) commands. But because libdivecomputer always pad the text with zeros and sends the maximum payload size, we won't hit the timeout. Reported-by: Ralph Lembcke <mail@ralph-lembcke.de>
