Remarks
- The communication monitor flag is used to show the operation of master station. Even if a slave
station has an error, this flag will remain ON as long as the master station is still normal.
- If the master station cannot communicate with a certain slave station, the master station will
execute a recovery operation for the slave station in error once every three cycles of the data link
operation. When the error slave station returns to normal operation, the master station will stop
sending recovery signals to the slave station.
