ID Exchange
ID NAK: The negative acknowledgment indicates that the station is not ready to
receive data. If this is returned, the WRITEREAD by the caller completes with line
state = CONTROL, error = 0.
ID WACK: The wait for acknowledgment indicates that the station is temporarily
not ready to continue. If ID WACK is returned, Envoy waits for one timeout interval
then reissues the ID ENQ sequence on behalf of the caller. If the ID WACK
sequence continues to be returned and the ID ENQ sequence is issued as many times
as the retry count specifies, the WRITEREAD by the caller completes with line state
= DISCONNECT, error = 170. Note that a WACK sequence consists of “DLE ;” in
EBCDIC and “DLE” in ASCII.
