Note:

The DU, DS, TSD, ETC, TMC, LBIN and LP fields are collec-
tively referred to as the Parameter Control Byte. This byte gen-
erally has a value of 0; however, if the page is non-volatile but 
the drive is not spun up or the GLTSD bit is set in Mode Page 
0Ah, then the value would be 20h. If the page is volatile, then 
the value is 60h.

Parameter Code

A code which uniquely identifies each parameter on a given Log Page. For example, the 

code 8002h on the Seek Performance Summary page reports the average seek time 

while the same code on the Block Replacement Summary page reports the number of 

blocks replaced. 

The following pages in this manual contain the lists of applicable parameters for each 

Log page.

DU

Disable Update. This parameter is 1 when updates are not enabled.

DS

Disable Save. This parameter is 1 when parameters are not saved by the drive.

TSD

Target Save Disable. This parameter is 0 indicating that the drive provides a target-spe-

cific way of saving parameters.

ETC

Enable Threshold Comparison. This parameter is always 0. The drive does not use 

thresholds for any of its parameters.

TMC

Threshold Met Comparison. This parameter is always 0. The drive does not use thresh-

olds for any of its parameters.

LBIN

List in Binary. This bit only valid if LP = 1. If LP = 1 and LBIN = 0, then the List Pa-

rameter is a string of ASCII graphic codes (code values 20h through 7Eh). If LP = 1 and 

LBIN = 1, then the parameter is a list of binary information.

LP

List Parameter. When 0, indicates that the parameter value for this parameter is a nu-

meric value. When LP is a 1, it indicates that the parameter value is an alphanumeric 

ASCII-string list. 

This parameter is always 0.

Parameter Length

Specifies the length, in bytes, of the parameter’s value.

Parameter Value

Contains the parameter’s current value when the PC field of the LOG SENSE command 

is 01b.
