Initialization Conflict
The figure below illustrates the transmission sequence during an initialization
conflict.

If a device responds to the communication partner's send job (code STX) within
the acknowledgment delay time (ADT) by sending the code STX instead of the
acknowledgment DLE or NAK, an initialization conflict occurs. Both devices want to
execute a send job. The device with the lower priority withdraws its send job and
responds with the code DLE. The device with the higher priority sends its data in
the manner described above. Once the connection has been cleared down, the
lower-priority device can execute its send job.
To be able to resolve the initialization conflict, you must parameterize the
communication partners with different priorities.
