No less than two deskew delays after the initiator detects the BSY signal is true, it shall release the SEL signal and may change the DATA BUS. The target shall wait unitl the SEL signal is false before asserting the REQ signal to enter an information transfer phase. (See ANSI SCSI-2 6.1.3.1 SELECTION Time-out Procedure)

RESELECTION Phase

RESELCTION is an optional phase that allows a target to reconnect to an initiator for the purpose of continuing some operation that was previously started by the initiator but was suspended by the target(i.e., the target disconnected by allowing a BUS FREE phase to occur before the operation was completed).

RESELECTION

Upon completing the ARBITRATION phase, the winning SCSI device has both the BSY and SEL signals asserted and has delayed at least a bus clear delay plus a bus settle delay. The winning SCSI device becomes a target by asserting the I/O signal. The winning SCSI device shall also set the DATA BUS to a value that is the logical OR of its SCSI ID bit and the initiator’s SCSI ID bit. The target shall wait at least two deskew delays and release the BSY signal. The target shall wait at least a bus settledelay before looking for a response from the initiator.

The initiator shall determine that it is reselected when the SEL and I/O signals and its SCSI ID bit are true and the BSY signal is false for at least a bus settle delay. The reselected initiator may examine the DATA BUS in order to determine the SCSI ID of the reselecting target. The reselected initiator shall then assert the BSY signal within a selection abort time of its most recent detection of being reselected; this is required for correct operation of the time-out procedure. The initiator shall not respond to a RESELECTION phase if bad parity is detected.

Also, the initiator shall not respond to a RESELECTION phase if other than two SCSI ID bits are on the DATA BUS.
