I just had the need to do this, and I was able to get it to work, but the syntax has changed.

 

To transmit something like 12 00 00 00, you would enter \12\00\00\00. There is no x preceeding the hex value as you had before.

 

I did notice one strange thing. If any of your hex codes are printable ASCII characters, the input box will replace your hex code with ASCII when you shift focus away. For example, \55 will change to U. This is a little annoying, but at least you can transmit the hex values like you wanted.

That's nice!  I can't believe that it is just a small syntax change.  For /55, I am still sending hex 55, but it is just showing you the ASCII equivalent, right?  In another words, I can still send any hex that I want.

Yes, that is correct. Even though \55 gets replaced with U, it is the same value.
