Collision window

Programmable field indicating the slot time or collision
window during which collisions occur in properly

starts at the beginning of transmissions, the preamble and
SFD (start-of-frame delimiter) are included.

The default value (0x37 (55d)) corresponds to the frame
byte count at the end of the window.
