Node C is the next node to discontinue transmitting when it attempts to take control of the bus by

drive the bus with an “active 0” symbol.

The busline signal, detected on the bus by the receiver, reflects node A’s message, as this is the
only node that did not experience contention.

MESSAGE FRAMES
A message transmission or reception is transferred within a message frame that adds control and
error-detection bits to the content of the message. The frame for an IFR message differs slightly
from that for a standard message, but they contain similar information (Figure 8-6).
