DEAD will be sent back if any of the following conditions are true:

 Command or HART Channel number is invalid.
 HART channel is not enabled.
 HART communication has not been established, meaning that the 5-byte unique

address has not been determined yet.

 The channel is currently updating device information. Theoretically, pass-

through command can be safely accepted after successfully receiving Command
0, but for simplicity, we'll track update of the device information as a whole.

 All other conditioned not generating INITIATE.

After the pass-through response is sent with a valid handle and a response value
indicating (33) INITIATE, the user can retrieve the data associated with the handle using
the following command message.
