3.7 Error Conditions and Service Requests

If an error arises in the 1309’s hardware, processor system or software,

the 1309 can signal the system controller by generating a Service Re-
quest. The exact nature of the error condition can then be investigated

by using the Warning? or Error? interface jobs.

3.7.1

The Status Byte

The status byte is an eight-bit byte, read out by the system controller
as part of the serial poll sequence. The status byte gives the first indi-

cation of the cause of the service request. The status byte for the 1309
is shown in Table 3.3. For an error to generate a Service Request, the

corresponding bit in the status byte must be enabled to request ser-
vice. The procedure for this is described in the following section.

When a service request is enabled, all bits in the status byte except bit

6 are reset by a serial poll read-out or resetting the status byte. Bit 6 is
only reset when the abnormal condition of the 1309 (identified by the

Warning? or Error? interface jobs,

sections 3.7.4

to

3.7.5

) is corrected.

When a service request is generated, bit 7 of the status byte is always

set; it cannot be disabled.
