Table 23. SLC-96 Line Switch Message Codes
Internal SLC-96 Stack Source.
Optionally, a SLC-96 FDL stack may be used to insert and correspondingly extract
the FDL information in the SLC-96 frame format.
The transmit SLC-96 FDL bits are sourced from the transmit framer SLC-96 FDL stack. The SLC-96 FDL stack
(see FRM_PR31—FRM_PR35) consists of five 8-bit registers that contain the SLC-96 FS and D-bit information as
shown in Table 24. The transmit stack data is transmitted to the line when the stack enable mode is active in the
parameter registers FRM_PR21 bit 6 = 1 and FRM_PR29 bit 5—bit 7 = x10 (binary).
The receive SLC-96 stack data is received when the receive framer is in the superframe alignment state. In the
SLC-96 mode, while in the loss of superframe alignment (LSFA) state, updating of the receive framer SLC-96 stack
is halted and neither the receive stack interrupt nor receive stack flag are asserted.

Bit 5—bit 0 of the first 2 bytes of the SLC-96 FDL stack
in Table 24 are transmitted to the line as the SLC-96 F
S
sequence. Bit 7 of the third stack register is transmitted
as the C
1
bit of the SLC-96 D sequence. The spoiler
bits (SPB1, SPB2, SPB3, and SPB4) are taken directly
from the transmit stack. The protocol for accessing the
SLC-96 stack information for the transmit and receive
framer is described below. The transmit SLC-96 stack
must be written with valid data when transmitting stack
data.
The device indicates that it is ready for an update of its
transmit stack by setting register FRM_SR4 bit 5 (SLC-
96 transmit FDL stack ready) high. At this time, the sys-
tem has about 9 ms to update the stack. Data written to
the stack during this interval will be transmitted during
the next SLC-96 superframe D-bit interval. By reading
bit 5 in register SR4, the system clears this bit so that it
can indicate the next time the transmit stack is ready. If
the transmit stack is not updated, then the content of
the stack is retransmitted to the line. The start of the
SLC-96 36-frame F
S
interval of the transmit framer is a
function of the first 2 bytes of the SLC-96 transmit stack
registers. These bytes must be programmed as shown
in Table 24. Programming any other state into these
two registers disables the proper transmission of the
SLC-96 D bits. Once programmed correctly, the trans-
mit SLC-96 D-bit stack is transmitted synchronous to
the transmit SLC-96 superframe structure.
On the receive side, the device indicates that it has
received data in the receive FDL stack (registers
FRM_SR54—FRM_SR58) by setting bit 4 in register
FRM_SR4 (SLC-96 receive FDL stack ready) high. The
system then has about 9 ms to read the content of the
stack before it is updated again (old data lost). By read-
ing bit 4 in register FRM_SR4, the system clears this
bit so that it can indicate the next time the receive stack
is ready. As explained above, the SLC-96 receive stack
is not updated when superframe alignment is lost.
