 - TM store dumpes will not be cancelled anymore if the transmitter is off. The dump can be cancelled
   with an OFF command, and the PTME is perfectly capable of dumping without the transmitter being
   on.
+- Transmitter state is not taken into account anymore for writing into the PTME. The PTME should
+  be perfectly capable of generating a valid CADU, even when the transmitter is not ON for any
+  reason.
