164 ACK ENQ 3 seconds 3 seconds ENQ ENQ ENQ ACK Data transmission may accidentally involve various types of errors. The BHT-protocol is designed to recover from those errors as frequently as possible. What follows is the BHT-protocol for phases 1 through 3. Phase 1: Establishment of Data Link ■ Normal phase 1 The sending station transmits an ENQ [...]

165 Appendices ■ Abnormal termination of phase 1 (Abort of phase 1) If the sending station receives no ACK from the receiving station after sending an ENQ 10 times in succession, it sends an EOT to the receiving station after three seconds from the 10th ENQ to terminate the message transmission abnormally. 3 seconds 3 seconds 3 seconds ENQ(1) ENQ[...]

166 Phase 2: Data Transmission ■ Normal phase 2 The sending station first sends a transmission block containing the heading text. Each time the sending station receives an ACK from the receiving station, it sends a transmission block containing the data texts as shown below. Upon receipt of an ACK in response to the last transmission block (data [...]

167 Appendices NAK NAK NAK NAK NAK ACK ■ Phase 2 with NAK If the sending station receives a NAK from the receiving station in response to a transmission block containing text data m, it sends that transmission block again immediately as shown below. If the sending station receives an ACK before receiving a NAK 10 times in succes- sion, it continu[...]

171 Appendices [ 2 ] Aborting Data T ransmission Pressing the C key aborts data transmission. If the C key is pressed during downloading, the BHT transmits an EOT and aborts the file transmission. If it is pressed during uploading, the BHT transmits the current transmission block followed by EOT and then aborts the file transmission.[...]

175 Appendices ■ Abnormal termination of phase 1 (Abort of phase 1) If the sending station receives no sequence of DLE ACK and IDs from the receiving station after sending a sequence of DLE ENQ and IDm 60 times in succession, it sends a sequence of DLE EOT and IDm to the receiving station after 0.5 second from the 60th sequence of DLE ENQ and IDm[...]

176 Phase 2: Data Transmission ■ Normal phase 2 The sending station first sends a transmission block containing the heading text. Each time the sending station receives a sequence of DLE ACK and IDs from the receiving station, it sends a transmission block containing the data texts as shown below. Upon receipt of a sequence of DLE ACK and IDs in [...]

177 Appendices ■ Phase 2 with suspension of data reception for erasure of the flash memory If the receiving BHT requires the flash memory to be erased for receiving downloaded files, it sends a sequence of WACK and IDs to the sending station to suspend the data transmission. Upon receipt of the sequence of WACK and IDs, the sending station stops [...]

178 ■ Phase 2 with a sequence of DLE NAK and IDs If the sending station receives a sequence of DLE NAK and IDs from the receiving station in response to a transmission block containing text data m, it sends that transmission block again immediately as shown below. If the sending station receives a sequence of DLE ACK and IDs before receiving the [...]

181 Appendices ■ Phase 3 with iterated transmission of DLE EOT and IDs due to no re- sponse or invalid response If the sending station receives no response or any invalid response from the receiving station in response to the sent sequence of DLE EOT and IDs, it iterates sending of the sequence at 0.5-second intervals up to 60 times. If the sendi[...]

182 ■ Phase 3 with timeout at the receiving station If the receiving station receives no subsequent text or normal sequence of DLE EOT and IDs within 30 seconds after sending a sequence of DLE ACK and IDs, it sends a sequence of DLE EOT and IDs and aborts the transmission abnormally. Sending station Data text #n DLE ACK and IDs DLE EOT and IDs Re[...]

183 Appendices [ 3 ] CRC To check whether data has been transmitted accurately, the BHT-Ir protocol supports CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check) which employs the CRC-16 generating system. In CRC, a CRC character is suffixed to a sequence of DLE ETX of every transmission block. Operands for CRC-16 The CRC generates CRC-16 from all bytes of a transmission[...]
