Debug Response

AH! I take it back. That message is not coming from XTenison but actually from Michaels original driver. We discovered a document that said the W800 could actually respond to a specific packet of data sent TO it and not just be one way to send us what it was received. We attempted to implement it but it turns out it was never implemented in the W800 so it did nothing. Michael was disappointed as it would have been a great way to make sure that comms to the W800 were actually working even in the absence of it receiving anything lately. It looks like he left that code in but just writes to the log in debug mode when he would otherwise have wanted to find out for sure it was still there.

So I can’t so easily stop it as I really don’t feel like booting up xcode today to work on that older interface and then have to do all the testing to make sure it still runs as far back as we need it to ;) You can solve the problem by switching to the newer W800 driver though, it does not do that. But really, the simplest solution is to stop running it in debug mode all the time ;)
