Thanks for the report. In event mode the device is supposed to replace any '0xec' characters in the input stream with the string '0xec 0x00', which the driver then needs to convert back to '0xec'. But clearly your device doesn't escape '0xec' as expected. What type of cp210x are you using? As you already discovered you can disable input parity checking (INPCK) as a workaround meanwhile. Johan
