6100 BSC Programming Manual

Writing Applications that Use 6100 BSC
The response buffer format is:
Response := 5
Status := 0 if the text field contains the block,
otherwise a code for the error that occurred
Request ID := The same as in the request
Detail := A status detail code, containing more
information about request status
Text In := 32 if the text field contains the block,
or 0 if an error occurred
Text := An array of 16-bit values, defined as follows:
Offset Description
0 Total number of requests from applications, CMI, and
CP6100
2 Number of requests rejected because of other requests
in progress, e.g., a READ request issued before the
previous READ request has completed
4 Number of WRITE requests
6 Number of READ requests
8 Number of WRITEREAD requests
10 Number of requests that failed because they were
inconsistent with the line state, e.g., a CONTROL
CONNECT request issued with the line in READ state
12 Number of requests with meaningless function codes
14 Number of errors on the bus between the 6101
controllers and the LIU
16 Number of text transmissions
18 Number of control sequences sent, including
acknowledgements
20 Number of text blocks received with block check
errors
22 Number of control sequences received, including
acknowledgements
24 Number of NAK replies received
26 Number of invalid messages or replies received,
e.g., an ACK in response to a TTD sequence
28 Number of buffer overruns, e.g., incoming blocks
larger than the Text In count allows
30 Number of no response timeouts, including retries
