If the DTDC field is non-zero and the Maximum Burst Size is non-zero, the target shall return
CHECK CONDITION status. The sense key will be set to ILLEGAL REQUEST and the additional
sense code set to ILLEGAL FIELD IN PARAMETER LIST.
The DTDC field is reported as changeable on a MODE SENSE command, and the default value is
zero.

0
The Connect Time Limit field indicates the maximum time, in 100 microsecond
increments, that the target remains connected until it attempts to disconnect. A value
of zero in this field indicates that there is no Connect Time Limit.
The Connect Time Limit field is reported as not changeable on a MODE SENSE
command, and the default value is zero.
10-11
The Maximum Burst Size field indicates the maximum amount of data to be trans-
ferred between SCSI bus disconnects when disconnects are allowed. The value in
this field is multiplied by 512 bytes to signify the maximum amount of data. For
example, a “1” in this field signifies 512 bytes and a “2” signifies 1024 bytes.
A value of zero in this field indicates no limit on the amount of data transferred. The
controller attempts to honor the specified value. However, in no case does the con-
troller transfer only a portion of a record. When reading a compressed tape, the con-
troller does not know how much uncompressed data is produced by a record about
to be transferred. In this case, the compressed record length (rather than the actual
bus transferred size) is used to determine if the maximum burst size is exceeded.
The Maximum Burst Size field is reported as not changeable on a MODE SENSE
command, and the default value is zero.

The Data Transfer Disconnect Control (DTDC) field defines further restrictions on
when a disconnect is permitted. Table 5-9 relates the significance of different values
in this field.

is to transfer has been transferred. The connect time limit and bus inactivity limit are ignored during the
data transfer.

A target will not disconnect once the data transfer of a command has started until the command is com-
