Description
r RUNNING
S RUN_STOPPED
00 INVALID
This counter increments every time the MAC layer reaches the
cell abort count limit. It is reset by the successful upstream
transmission of a cell – for example, when the DCT3080
receives an ACK. If the counter reaches the MAC abort count
limit, the DCT3080 assumes the MAC layer is unavailable due to
noise, congestion, or some other problem. The DCT3080 stops
transmitting data upstream, reports an error to the calling
function, and attempts to re-enter the network using the
initialization process. 0000 is displayed as default or if the MAC
Abort CNTR is not configured or unknown.
The socket mode and activity:
UNUSED — The socket is not being used.
OPENED — The socket is open.
READY — The socket is ready to send or receive.
RECEIVING — The socket is receiving data from the
application server.
SENDING — The socket is sending data to the application
server.
UNKNOWN — The socket state is invalid or unknown.
