    As the transmitting module nears the end of the transmission, it inspects the DI buffer to see if more data exists to be transmitted. This could be the case if more bytes arrived from the host after the transmission began. If more data is pending, the transmitting module assembles a subsequent packet for transmission. © 2010 Digi International, Inc.      12...

The wake-up initializer contains initialization information and all receiving modules must wake during the wake- up initializer portion of data transmission in order to be synchronized with the transmitting module and receive the data.
