event request ID.
Furthermore, requests, responses, and events have an associated target ID
-(``TID``). This target ID is split into output (host to EC) and input (EC to

-messages) set to zero. Two ``TID`` values are known: Primary (``0x01``) and
-secondary (``0x02``). In general, the response to a request should have the
