increments, between the
response queue update and

This parameter can be speci-
fied only if the Operation Mode
parameter is enabled. Other-
wise, this parameter is set to
zero. This parameter should
be set to zero unless the Oper-
ation Mode parameter is set to
5 or 6.
The interrupt is not generated
if the host updates the
