Table 31-3 describes the receive commands that apply to the HDLC controller.
31.5.2 HDLC Error Handling
The HDLC controller reports frame reception and transmission error conditions using the
channel BDs, error counters, and HDLC event register (FCCE). Table 31-4 describes
HDLC transmission errors, which are reported through the TxBD.
channel BDs, error counters, and HDLC event register (FCCE). Table 31-4 describes
HDLC transmission errors, which are reported through the TxBD.
RESTART
TRANSMIT
Enables character transmission on the transmit channel. This command is expected by the HDLC
controller after a
controller after a
STOP
TRANSMIT
command, after a
STOP
TRANSMIT
command is issued and the channel
in its FCC mode register is disabled, after a
GRACEFUL
STOP
TRANSMIT
command, or after a transmitter
error (underrun or CTS lost with no automatic frame retransmission). The HDLC controller resumes
sending from the current TBPTR in the channel TxBD table.
sending from the current TBPTR in the channel TxBD table.
INIT
TX
PARAMETERS
Initializes all transmit parameters in this serial channel parameter RAM to their reset state. This
command should only be issued when the transmitter is disabled. Notice that the
command should only be issued when the transmitter is disabled. Notice that the
INIT
TX
AND
RX
PARAMETERS
command can also be used to reset the transmit and receive parameters.
Table 31-3. Receive Commands
Command
Description
ENTER
HUNT
MODE
After the hardware or software is reset and the channel is enabled in the FCC mode register, the
channel is in receive enable mode and uses the Þrst BD in the table. The
channel is in receive enable mode and uses the Þrst BD in the table. The
ENTER
HUNT
MODE
command is generally used to force the HDLC receiver to abort reception of the current frame and
enter the hunt mode. In hunt mode, the HDLC controller continually scans the input data stream for
the ßag sequence. After receiving the command, the current receive buffer is closed and the CRC is
reset. Further frame reception uses the next BD.

Error Description
Transmitter
Underrun
Underrun
When this error occurs, the channel terminates buffer transmission, closes the buffer, sets the
underrun (U) bit in the BD, and generates the TXE interrupt if it is enabled. The channel resumes
transmission after receiving the
underrun (U) bit in the BD, and generates the TXE interrupt if it is enabled. The channel resumes
transmission after receiving the
RESTART
TRANSMIT
command.
CTS Lost
during Frame
Transmission
during Frame
Transmission
When this error occurs, the channel terminates buffer transmission, closes the buffer, sets TxBD[CT],
and generates a TXE interrupt (if it is enabled). The channel resumes transmission after receiving
the
and generates a TXE interrupt (if it is enabled). The channel resumes transmission after receiving
the
RESTART
TRANSMIT
command.
