This did get me thinking about the behavior of PARAMETER_DESCRIPTION. Because of the section 6.2.10.2 language, I'd previously said that to save time, you could send a GET PARAMETER_DESCRIPTION to one responder in the rig, and apply the response to all fixtures from the same manufacturer that declare support for that PID.

But the text only requires that they have the same "meaning", not the identical response. Different fixtures could have the same meaning, but have different values for Min/Max or similar.

When we reopen E1.20 and clean up the PARAMETER_DESCRIPTION PID we should fix this. Scott can you add it to the TODO list?
