6.8.4 DVR_MSG_R_L1_STATS – Link Statistics Request
Synopsis
Retrieve link statistics.
Format
Description
This message provides the user with a number of statistics on a per link basis. If the user sends the message
with a non zero status field, the statistics are reset to 0 after being read.
Parameters
The DVR_MSG_R_L1_STATS message includes the following parameters:
• duration
Duration in tenths of a second since the statistic counters were last reset.
• about_cnt
The number of aborts received on the link.
• CRC_errs
Number of CRC errors received on the link.
• length_errs
The number of received frames that were designated as either too long or too short for a configured
protocol.
• rx_overrun
The number of times that the receiver was forced to discard incoming frames as a result of there being
no internal buffers available to receive the incoming data. This is a count of the number of events rather
than a count of the number of frames discarded.
