NOTE: the dark gray (white letters) should be set to this value when sending a new message to the 1939STB.

RMTPND Bits 7 and 6

Remote Pending (used for messages that are to be transmitted). Indicates that the transmission of this object has been requested by a remote node, but the data has not been sent yet. When RMTPND is set the controller also sets TXRQ. Both RMTPND and TXRQ are cleared when the message has been sent successfully.

TXRQ Bits 5 and 4

Transmit Request. This message is in the process of being transmitted and is not finished yet.

MSGLST/CPUUPD Bits 3 and 2

This pair of bits has a dual function based on its direction.

Receive

MSGLST. Message Lost indicates the J1939 controller has stored a new message into this location while NEWDAT was set. The previous message was overwritten. This can occur for several reasons. The MPU was busy doing other tasks, transmitting a serial message, error checking or servicing a message with a higher slot number.

Transmit

CPUUPD. CPU update inhibits the transmission of a message while the CPU updates the information. It can also be used to control the automatic transmission of a message.
