be changed. Each SCSI device when transmitting data shall respect the negotiated limits set by the other's 
PARALLEL PROTOCOL REQUEST message, but it is permitted to transfer data with larger periods, smaller 
synchronous REQ/ACK offsets, or both. The completion of an exchange of PARALLEL PROTOCOL 
REQUEST messages implies an agreement as shown in Table 35.
If the target does not support the selected protocol option it shall clear as many bits as required to set the pro-
tocol option field to a legal value that it does support.
Table 35:
PARALLEL PROTOCOL REQUEST messages implied agreement
If there is an unrecoverable parity error on the initial PARALLEL PROTOCOL REQUEST message (see Sec-
tion 4.3.12), the initiator shall retain its previous data transfer mode and protocol options. If there is an unex-
pected bus free on the initial PARALLEL PROTOCOL REQUEST message, the initiator shall retain its previous 
data transfer mode and protocol options. 
4.3.12.1
PARALLEL PROTOCOL REQUEST
If the initiator recognizes that Parallel Protocol Request negotiation is required, it creates an attention condition 
and sends a PARALLEL PROTOCOL REQUEST message to begin the negotiating process. After successfully 
completing the MESSAGE OUT phase, the target shall respond with a PARALLEL PROTOCOL REQUEST 
message or a MESSAGE REJECT message.

Synchronous transfer (i.e., each SCSI device transmits data with a 
period equal to or greater than and a REQ/ACK OFFSET equal to or 
less than the negotiated values received in the target’s PPR message).

MESSAGE REJECT message
The initiator shall set eight-bit/asynchronous data transfer with protocol 
options field set to 0h.
