3-48 Operating Characteristics
3.12.4 Spool States
3.12.4.1 Power Off
The GES-1993 is completely shut down.
3.12.4.2 Power On
The GES-1993 is "on" and in a stable state.
3.12.4.2.1 Spool Inactive
Spooling is not activated. This is either because GemConfigSpool is "0" (disabled)
in which case, spooling will never be active, or because while GemConfigSpool is
enabled ("1"), a RTY error has not occurred. In this state, no messages are sent to
the spool. The Host may define or un-define messages eligible for spooling should
the link go down.
3.12.4.2.2 Spool Active
While GemConfigSpool is "enabled" ("1"), the GES-1993 has experienced a
transmission failure (RTY error). Upon entry into this state, the first message sent to
the spool is the GemSpoolingActivated event, assuming that this event is enabled
and that spooling for the particular stream and function have been enabled. This
message will enter the spool even before the message which originally caused the
RTY error.
Spool Not Full
The file containing the spooled messages has not reached its capacity.
Spool Full
The file containing the spooled messages has reached its capacity.
No Spool Output
In this state, the Host is not reading or purging the GES-1993's spool.
Spool Output
This super-state contains the two sub-states in which the Equipment's spool
is either being read or purged by the Host.
Purge Spool
The GES-1993 is purging its spool, erasing all spooled messages.
Transmit Spool
The GES-1993 is transmitting spooled messages to the Host.
