TRANSMISSION 
CONTROL 
DATA  TO 
BUFFER 
MEMORY 
The  buffer memory has a special applications area for setting transmission 
control data for communications with external devices (see Section 3.7). 
Each transmission data item 
has 
a default value.  However  (depending on the 
purpose and application 
of 
data transmission), using default values not only 
makes  data communications more complicated, but may even preclude them. 
This section describes the settings of all Items In the buffer memory special 
applications area,  shows  how to make  changes, and gives specific examples. 
The following sections give detailed information about the special applications 
area: 
.Section  8.14  gives  details about the special applications area  used for the 
on-demand function when dedicated protocols are used. 
.Section  9.5 
(5) 
gives details about the  no-protocol  received data  clear 
request  area  when the no-protocol mode is used. 
.Section  10  gives details  about the  special  applications  area  when 
the 
bidirectional mode 
is 
used.

(1)  This  section also  discusses  changing the default values set  in the 
special-applications area in the buffer and reading the present values 
of the special-applications area. 
It 
is not necessary to write setting values to an  area  where  default 
values do not have to be changed. 
(2)  When  changing a setting (except  for the 
two 
areas indicated below), 
either (a) turn 
ON 
the  power supply or reset the PC  CPU and change 
the setting after the AJ71C24  READY  signal 
(Xn7) 
goes 
ON, 
or  (b) 
switch the AJ71C24  mode  and  change  the setting  after the higher 
bytes in the designated  mode  switching area of  the AJ71C24 buffer 
are  moved into 
02H.

Buffer  memory  addresses 10E and  11  DH to 11  FH are reserved for the 
system  only. Writing data to these  addresses precludes normal opera- 
tion of the AJ71  C24.
