Note
Channel-related diagnostics is always updated up to the current diagnostics message in the
diagnostics message frame. Subsequent, older diagnostics messages are not deleted.
Remedy: Evaluate the valid, current length of the diagnostics message frame:
• STEP 7 from the parameter RET_VAL of SFC 13.
