IFR Messaging Type 3: Multiple Bytes, Single Responder
IFR messaging type 3 (Figure 8-11) is ideal for requesting large amounts of information from a
single source in your system. You can compile up to 12 bytes of data from a remote node on a
single request. In our example, for the same amount of CPU overhead as IFR type 1 messaging
exhausted (4.96 ms), you can gather up to twelve times as much information.

TRANSMITTING AND RECEIVING MESSAGES
The J1850 controller can transmit and receive messages in either standard or IFR form.
8.5.1
Transmitting Messages
To transmit a standard message, prepare the message in register RAM and then write it to the
J1850 transmit (J_TX) register (Figure 8-12) one byte at a time.
