Table 5 - Diagnostic Status Register
BIT | BIT NAME | SYMBOL | DESCRIPTION | 
  | 
  | 
  | 
  | 
  | |
7  | My Reconfiguration  | MY-  | This bit, if high, indicates that a past reconfiguration was caused by this  | |
  | 
  | RECON | node. It is set when the Lost Token Timer times out, and should be typically  | |
  | 
  | 
  | read following an interrupt caused by RECON. Refer to the Improved  | |
  | 
  | 
  | Diagnostics section for further detail.  | 
  | 
  | 
  | 
  | 
  | |
6  | Duplicate ID  | DUPID | This bit, if high, indicates that the value in the Node ID Register matches  | |
  | 
  | 
  | both Destination ID characters of the token and a response to this token has  | |
  | 
  | 
  | occurred. Trailing zero's are also verified. A logic "1" on this bit indicates a  | |
  | 
  | 
  | duplicate Node ID, thus the user should write a new value into the Node ID  | |
  | 
  | 
  | Register. This bit is only useful for duplicate ID detection when the device is  | |
  | 
  | 
  | off line, that is, when the transmitter is disabled. When the device is on line  | |
  | 
  | 
  | this bit will be set every time the device gets the token. This bit is reset  | |
  | 
  | 
  | automatically upon reading the Diagnostic Status Register. Refer to the  | |
  | 
  | 
  | Improved Diagnostics section for further detail.  | 
  | 
  | 
  | 
  | 
  | |
5  | Receive  | RCVACT | This bit, if high, indicates that data activity (logic "1") was detected on the  | |
  | Activity  | 
  | RXIN pin of the device. Refer to the Improved  | Diagnostics section for  | 
  | 
  | 
  | further detail.  | 
  | 
  | 
  | 
  | 
  | |
4  | Token Seen  | TOKEN | This bit, if high, indicates that a token has been seen on the network, sent by  | |
  | 
  | 
  | a node other than this one. Refer to the Improved Diagnostic section for  | |
  | 
  | 
  | further detail.  | 
  | 
  | 
  | 
  | 
  | |
3  | Excessive NAK  | EXCNAK | This bit, if high, indicates that either 128 or 4 Negative Acknowledgements  | |
  | 
  | 
  | have occurred in response to the Free Buffer Enquiry. This bit is cleared  | |
  | 
  | 
  | upon the "POR Clear Flags" command. Reading the Diagnostic Status  | |
  | 
  | 
  | Register does not clear this bit. This bit, when set, will cause an interrupt if  | |
  | 
  | 
  | the corresponding bit in the IMR is also set. Refer to the Improved  | |
  | 
  | 
  | Diagnostics section for further detail.  | 
  | 
  | 
  | 
  | 
  | |
2  | Tentative ID  | TENTID | This bit, if high, indicates that a response to a token whose DID matches the  | |
  | 
  | 
  | value in the Tentative ID Register has occurred. The second DID and the  | |
  | 
  | 
  | trailing zero's are not checked. Since each node sees every token passed  | |
  | 
  | 
  | around the network, this feature can be used with the device   | |
  | 
  | 
  | to build and update a network map. Refer to the Improved Diagnostics  | |
  | 
  | 
  | section for further detail.  | 
  | 
  | 
  | 
  | 
  | |
1  | New Next ID  | NEW  | This bit, if high, indicates that the Next ID Register has been updated and  | |
  | 
  | NXTID | that a node has either joined or left the network.  | Reading the Diagnostic  | 
  | 
  | 
  | Status Register does not clear this bit. This bit, when set, will cause an  | |
  | 
  | 
  | interrupt if the corresponding bit in the IMR is also set. The bit is cleared by  | |
  | 
  | 
  | reading the Next ID Register.  | 
  | 
  | 
  | 
  | 
  | 
  | 
1,0  | (Reserved)  | 
  | These bits are undefined.  |
