I'm not sure I understood exactly what you want to know, so this might
not answer your questions.

All the repeated messages look like this:

20 00 0c 04 00 00 27 57 fa 00 00 07 8a 0c 00 00 7e 87 eb 00 00 aa 8f 37 00 00 61 4d f1 00 00 00

The values equal to zero are always equal to zero when there are no
fingers on the touchpad. The non-zero values are equal to the last
valid value recorded and don't change when the fingers are released.

To get the above line I touched the touchpad with 5 fingers so that
all the bytes (except the last one which is different from zero on
click release) were used.
