13-54 SLC Communication Channels
Table 13.16 SLC 5/03 and Higher Channel 0 DF1 Full-duplex Channel Status
For processors running OS Series C, FRN 6 and higher, clicking the Clear
button while monitoring Channel Status of either channel 1 or channel 0
online, will reset all of the channel status diagnostic counters for both channels
to zero. Prior to OS Series C, FRN 6 the only channel status diagnostic
counters that are reset when the Clear button is clicked are the ones on the
channel that the programming terminal is connected to. For example, if your
programming terminal is connected online via channel 0 and you are
monitoring the Channel Status of channel 1, when you click on the Clear
button, only channel 0 diagnostic counters will be reset, not channel 1
diagnostic counters.
