A user with a Dell laptop running the tool was able to get a capture,
and in the capture the byte was 0x00 IIRC. What I don't know is
whether that capture had all it needed to have or whether it was run
once it was already unlocked. Maybe the re-unlock operation runs it
with 0x00 but the original unlock operation requires some additional
command beforehand, no idea. If someone has a new Dell laptop with a
locked DW5821e and Windows, please let us know :)
