REV. 1.2.1
Transmit FEAC Processor will generate an interrupt (if enabled) to the local µP/µC upon completion of the 10th
transmission of the FEAC Message. The purpose of having the Framer generate this interrupt is to let the local
µP/µC know that the Transmit FEAC Processor is now available and ready to transmit a new FEAC message.
The Transmit FEAC Processor continues to send the FEAC Code Message even after the 10th transmission
until the TxFEAC processor is disabled or a new FEAC code transmission is initiated.
If the TxFEAC processor is disabled, the FEAC bit contains a “1” which the remote Rx side interprets as an idle
FEAC message.
Figure 49 presents a flow chart depicting how to use the Transmit FEAC Processor.
NOTE: The FEAC processor starts transmitting the last FEAC message when enabled. Execute the “Initiate Transmission
of the Outbound FEAC Message” step without delay to prevent unintended incorrect transmission. Rx FEAC
prossecor validates a FEAC code upon receiving the same code 8 times.

4.2.3.2 Message-Oriented Signaling (e.g., LAP-D) processing via the Transmit DS3 HDLC
Controller
The LAPD Transmitter within the Transmit DS3 HDLC Controller Block allows the user to transmit Path
Maintenance Data Link (PMDL) messages to the remote terminal via the outbound DS3 Frames. The
