Dear Christopher,


Thank you for the patch.

I do not understand, why the *valid* bit is not needed anymore, and why 
it’s the trigger bit seems to do the same task. It’d be great if you 
elaborated.

Is that also documented in the dataheet?

Could this refactoring be a separate commit?

I’d add the timeout value to the message.
