19.5.1.25 BOF Control Register (BLR)
The BLR[6] bit is used to select whether C0h or FFh start patterns are to be used, when multiple start
flags are required in SIR mode. If only one start flag is required, this is always C0h. If n start flags are
required, either (n – 1) C0h or (n –1) FFh flags are sent, followed by a single C0h flag (immediately
preceding the first data byte). The BOF control register (BLR) is shown in
and described in
