Target Mode

Note

When Target Mode is terminated, whether by a Disable Target Mode command or by a SCSI bus Reset, the Target Selection Data Structure will be written by the adapter, with the TME bit of the Flags field cleared. Additionally, if a SCSI bus reset occurred, an error of 27H will be reported in the Error field

In this section, the sequence of events that can be expected and the parts that the adapter and Host must play are described.

The following sequence must occur to ensure proper operation of Target Mode:.

1.Host allocates 32 bytes of memory for the Target Selection Data Structure, to be used by the adapter when it is selected by an initiator.

2.The Host issues a Target Mode Enable command to the RF3880. The address of the Target Selection Data Structure is passed in the command.

3.The adapter is ready to accept selection by an initiator and will remain so until a SCSI Reset occurs or the Host issues a Target Mode Disable command.
