Parameter 7: Action of PAD on Break from DTE

 

Parameter 7 specifies the action taken by the PAD when the

 

PAD receives a break signal from the local DTE. The break

 

signal allows the DTE to signal the PAD without loss of

 

character transparency. The PAD also relays a break signal to

 

the DTE when the PAD receives a break from the remote DTE.

 

The PAD responds to the break only when a packet call is

 

established and the PAD is in the PAD data transfer mode.

 

Upon receipt of the break, all data stored by the PAD is

 

forwarded. The break signal consists of binary 0s for more than

 

135 ms.

 

Table 12-13: PAD Action on DTE Break

 

 

Value

Description

 

 

0

The PAD does nothing on receipt of a break in PAD data transfer, PAD

 

command, or PAD connect-in-progress mode (while establishing a

 

call) *

 

 

1

An expedited interrupt packet is transmitted by the PAD prior to the

 

forwarding of the stored PAD data. If a previously transmitted interrupt

 

is not acknowledged, the break interrupt will wait until

 

acknowledgment of the previous interrupt is received.

 

 

2

A reset request packet is transmitted to the remote end after the

 

forwarding of the PAD data.

 

 

5

The PAD transmits an expedited interrupt packet, any stored PAD data

 

is forwarded, and an a X.29 indication of break packet is transmitted

 

 

8

Escape from PAD data transfer. Equivalent to a PAD recall

 

 

21

Transmitted data is discarded, and expedited interrupt packet is

 

transmitted if there is no outstanding interrupt, stored PAD data is

 

forwarded, and an X.29 indication of break packet is transmitted.

 

When data must be discarded, parameter 8 is set to 1. When the break

 

actions are completed, parameter resets to 0.

 

 

Parameter 7 can be any added combination of the above values. * default
