ror) within the Rx E3 LAPD Status Register, to the ap-
propriate value as tabulated below.
If the LAPD Receiver detects an error in the FCS val-
ue, then it will set the RxFCS Error bit-field to “1”.
Conversely, if the LAPD Receiver does not detect an
error in the FCS value, then it will clear the RxFCS
Error bit-field to “0”.
NOTE: The LAPD Receiver will extract and write the PMDL
Message into the Receive LAPD Message buffer indepen-
dent of the results of FCS Verification. Hence, the user is
urged to validate each PMDL Message that is read in from
the Receive LAPD Message buffer, by first checking the
state of this bit-field.
3. Check and Report the State of the “C/R” Bit-field
After receiving the LAPD Message frame, the LAPD
Receiver will check the state of the “C/R” bit-field,
within octet # 2 of the LAPD Message frame header
and will reflect this value in Bit 3 (Rx CR Type) within
the Rx E3 LAPD Status Register, as depicted below.
When this bit-field is “0”, it means that this LAPD
Message frame is originating from a customer instal-
lation. When this bit-field is “1”, it means that this
LAPD Message frame is originating from a network
terminal.
4. Identify the Type of LAPD Message Frame/PMDL
Message
Next, the LAPD Receiver will check the value of the
first octet within the PMDL Message field, of the
LAPD Message frame. When operating the LAPD
Transmitter, the user is required to write in a byte of a
specific value into the first octet position within the
Transmit LAPD Message buffer. The value of this byte
corresponds to the type of LAPD Message frame/PM-
DL Message that is to be transmitted to the Remote
LAPD Receiver. This Message-Type Identification oc-
tet is transported to the Remote LAPD Receiver,
along with the rest of the LAPD frame. From this Mes-
sage Type Identification octet, the LAPD Receiver will
know the type of size of the newly received PMDL
Message. The LAPD Receiver will then reflect this in-
formation in Bits 4 and 5 (RxLAPDType[1:0]) within
the Rx E3 LAPD Status Register, as depicted below.
