Adapter Bypass Mechanism
This procedure is not valid for 3745 Model 17A if a 3746 Model 900 is installed.
For Line Adapters
There is no bypass mechanism. Any missing LA must be replaced by a BPC card
except if it is the last in the chain.
For Channel Adapters
The bypass mechanism is under MOSS and NCP control through the CDF (at
IPL time or by a 'shut-down' command).
The MOSS tells the CAs what the adapter configuration is on the bus (each CA
must know if the preceding and the next adapter are present or not).
Two chains are involved is this mechanism:
– Cycle Steal Grant (CSG).
– Autoselection chain.
