Appendix A.7.2. Driver Exposed Stats
The driver is capable of exposing statistics about its behavior in a Data Array. It is
necessary to create a Data Array with name sim4100-stats as per the example below
and it will be updated by the driver. Note that the stat number corresponds to the offset.
Take care not to poke any values into the 1st 10 elements of this Data Array (offsets 0 to
9). Doing so will trigger internal diagnostics and may interfere with normal operation.
A different set of stats is maintained for each connection. Each connection uses 100
elements of the data array. Ensure the array length is large enough if the port number is
large.

At revision 1.07a of the driver and before, no stats had been exposed.
