FINS/TCP Method Section 7-4
FINS/TCP Connection
Status (Word n+23)
While a connection with a remote node is established, the bit corresponding to
the FINS/TCP connection status turns ON in the section of the CPU Bus Unit
words allocated in the CIO Area. The bit turns OFF if the connection is termi-
nated by an error in communications with a remote node or a FINS command
(i.e., FINS/TCP CONNECTION REMOTE NODE CHANGE REQUEST).
FINS/TCP
Communications
Procedure
With FINS/TCP, FINS node addresses are exchanged immediately after a
connection is established. This makes it possible to determine the FINS node
addresses to which the 16 connection numbers are connected, and to man-
age them in an internal table.
After a connection has been established as a FINS/TCP server, it is termi-
nated in the following ways.
• When the connection is closed by the client.
• When a FINS command to close the connection (FINS/TCP CONNEC-
TION REMOTE NODE CHANGE REQUEST: command code 27 30 hexa-
decimal) is sent by the client.
• When there is no response from the client when the keep-alive function is
in effect.
• If a command other than FINS FRAME SEND is received from the client,
the connection will close after the FINS FRAME SEND ERROR NOTIFI-
CATION command is sent.
After a connection has been established as a FINS/TCP client, it can be termi-
nated in the following ways.
• If the connection is closed by the server.
