Sn_SR (Socket n Status Register) [R] [0x4003+0x0n00] [0x00] 
This  register  provides  the  status  of  Socket  n  .  SOCKET  status  are  changed  when  using  the 
Sn_CR  register  or  during  packet  transmission/reception.  The  table  below  describes  the 
different states of Socket n .

Description 
0x00 
SOCK_CLOSED  It is the status that resource of SOCKETn is released. When 
DISCON or CLOSE command is performed, or ARP
TO
, or TCP
TO
occurs,  it  is  changed  to  SOCK_CLOSED  regardless  of 
previous value. 
0x13 
SOCK_INIT  It  is shown  in  case  that Sn_MR  is  set  as TCP  and OPEN 
commands  are  given  to  Sn_CR.  It  is  changed  to  SOCK_INIT 
when  Sn_MR  (P3:P0)  is  Sn_MR_TCP  and  OPEN  command  is 
performed.  It  is  the  initial  step  of  TCP  connection 
establishment. 
It  is  possible  to  perform  LISTEN  command  at  the  "TCP 
SERVER" mode and CONNECT command at the "TCP CLIENT".
It is the status that SOCKETn operates as "TCP SERVER" and 
waits for connect-request (SYN packet) from "TCP CLIENT". 
0x14 
SOCK_LISTEN  Socket  n    operates in  TCP  Server Mode  and  waits for  a 
connection-request (SYN packet) from a “TCP CLIENT”. 
When  the  LISTEN  command  is  used,  the  stage  changes  to 
SOCK_LISTEN 
Once  the  connection  is  established,  the  SOCKET  state 
changes from SOCK_LISTEN to SOCK_ESTABLISHED; however, 
if  the  connection  fails,  TCP
TO
  occurs  (Sn_IR(TIME_OUT)  = 
‘1’) and the state changes to SOCK_CLOSED. 
0x17 
SOCK_ESTABLISHED
It is shown in case that connection is established. It is 
changed to SOCK_ESTABLISHED when SYN packet from “TCP 
CLIENT”  is  successfully  processed  at  the  SOCK_LISTEN,  or 
CONNECTS  command  is  successfully  performed.  At  this 
status,  DATA  packet  can  be  transferred,  that  is,  SEND  or 
RECV command can be performed. 
0x1C 
SOCK_CLOSE_WAIT
It  is  the  status  that  disconnect-request  (FIN  packet)  is 
received from the peer As TCP connection is half-closed, it 
is possible to transfer data packet. In order to complete the 
TCP disconnection, DISCON command should be performed. 
For SOCKETn close without disconnection-process, CLOSE 
command should be just performed.
