Moves in one write

Query round trip

A program sent each box 3,000 queries one at a time, in two runs, timed on the PC's USB bus.

Paced moves, mouse still

One-count moves at a steady rate into a still mouse: stock's binary and text forms against Medius's MOVE frames, sent in 1 ms batches unless the table says otherwise. Each count adds 1 to the clone's X.

Counts arriving from 1 s of moves, binary

Paced moves, mouse moving

The same moves into a 1 kHz mouse whose Y moves 1-10 and back every 200 ms. Here stock refuses some moves, replying DE AD 01 00 18 FF to a binary move and ERR to a text one.
