Part IV.  Communications Processor Module
22.9  Sending and Receiving the Synchronization 
Sequence
The BISYNC channel can be programmed to send and receive a synchronization pattern
deÞned in the DSR. GSMR_H[SYNL] deÞnes pattern length, as shown in Table 22-7. The
receiver synchronizes on this pattern. Unless SYNL is zero (external sync), the transmitter
always sends the entire DSR contents, lsb Þrst, before each frameÑthe chosen 4- or 8-bit
pattern can be repeated in the lower-order bits.
22.10  Handling Errors in the SCC BISYNC
The controller reports message transmit and receive errors using the channel BDs, error
counters, and the SCCE. Modem lines can be directly monitored via the parallel port pins.

Name Description
0
V
Valid. If V = 1 and the receiver is not in hunt mode when a SYNC character is received, this 
character is discarded.
1
DIS
Disable DLE stripping
0 Normal mode.
1  DLE stripping disabled. When DIS is enabled in BDLE and on BSYNC the following cases 
occur:
DLE-DLE sequence. Both characters are written to the memory. The BCS is calculated only on 
the second DLE.
DLE-SYNC sequence. Both characters are written to the memory, but neither are included in 
the BCS calculation.
DLE-ETX, DLE-ITB, DLE-ETB sequence, both characters are written to memory. The BCS is 
calculated only on the second character.
