Where:
- N(S): Number of the information frame
- N(R): Number of next information frame to receive
- TYPE: Type of S-Frame
- M: Modifier bits for U-Frame
I-Frames coding
The functions of the information(
I
) command and response is to transfer sequentially
numbered frames, each containing an information field, which might be empty, across the
data link.
S-Frames coding
Supervisory(
S
) commands and responses are used to perform numbered supervisory
functions such as acknowledgment, temporary suspension of information transfer, or
error recovery. Frames with the S format control field do not contain an information field.
Supervisory Format commands and responses are as follows:
RR
: Receive Ready is used by an endpoint to indicate that it is ready to receive an
information frame and/or acknowledge previously received frames.
RNR
: Receive Not Ready is used to indicate that an endpoint is not ready to receive any
information frames or acknowledgments.
REJ
: Reject is used to request the retransmission of frames.
SREJ
: This optional command is not supported by the PN544. If received SREJ is
treated like an erroneous frame.
The type coding is given by the following table:
