General Asynchronous Link Error Codes

(STS, EXT STS)

Asynchronous link (RS-232-C) error codes are passed in the link message
packets. You can find these codes in the:

Status (STS) Byte of the Message Packet
Extended Status (EXT STS) Byte of the Packet (for Some Commands)

The STS is divided into two nibbles (4 bits):

The Local Error Nibble
The Remote Error Nibble

Local STS Error Codes

The local STS error code nibble contains errors found by local
asynchronous link layer. The following table contains error codes (in hex)
that you may find in the local error code nibble of the STS byte:
