Chapter 7 Board-control Commands
Unit Options (08H) Page 7 - 23
If the Sense Count field is set to 0, but there are non-zero values in the Selected
Sense bytes fields, the byte numbers and order you define in the Selected Sense
Bytes fields are used to return automatic Request Sense information for this
device.
Example Use of Selected Sense Bytes Fields
In this example your device has valuable information, in bytes other than the
first eight, that you wish to substitute:
• Byte 12 is an Additional Sense Code.
• Bytes 15 through 17 include additional error information.
Assume bytes 16 and 17 are pointers that you wish to read in as a word. You
will arrange them in the group of Sense Bytes to make this easy. For the
example, the Sense Count field must be set to zero. The Selected Sense Bytes
fields of the Unit Options command would look like this:
Address
Offset
Byte Memory Address
Offset + 0 Offset + 1 Offset + 2 Offset + 3
00H Command Identifier
04H Disconnect Time-out Unit SCSI ID Adapter ID = FFH
08H Select Time-out Retry Control Retry Limit
