DTC not sending data requests if EW tags are not incremented ?

[pavel1murat]

it looks that if the same run plan is launched twice, the DTC is not sending data requests for the second launch, unless a soft reset is issued.

• what is the rationale behind that ? - if everything is OK during the run, the event tags are supposed to be increasing monotonically.
• However if it did happen that TAG(n+1) < TAG(n), that is obviously a problem.
• If the DTC, having internally recognized that, did not send a data request, how do we know about the problem?

The same is the case for the software DRs. Could we remove the firmware "guards" that prevent sending a software DR if the EWT doesn't match? This would be very helpful for debugging. At the moment there is no feedback if a software DR is not sent out. I think it would be better to send it out and then receive from the ROC that something is wrong than just do nothing?

@pavel1murat Please discuss at more length the use case for this with @rrivera747 and @ron003 and @corrodis
