Link layer services<br />

The transmission procedures are a set of rules that ensure that transmissions are successfully<br />

carried out in response to link user requests. They must be able to cope with<br />

errors on the transmission channel that may introduce errors, or cause information to be<br />

lost. The transmission procedures are different for unbalanced <strong>and</strong> balanced links, <strong>and</strong><br />

described for each in the following sections.<br />

8.4.7 Link initialization<br />

Link initialization is a data link service carried out after a station has been off-line <strong>and</strong><br />

first becomes available again. While the slave station is off-line the master periodically<br />

sends link status request functions until a status of link response is obtained. The<br />

sequences are shown following for both unbalanced <strong>and</strong> balanced modes.<br />

Station / link initialization, unbalanced mode:<br />

• Master sends link status request until status of link received<br />

• Master sends link reset<br />

• Link is active on receipt of ACK<br />

• Slave generates station initialization complete event
