The 16 bit FCS (Frame Check Sequence) is calculat-
ed over the LAPD Message Header and Information
Payload bytes, by using the CRC-16 polynomial, x¹⁶
+ x¹² + x⁵ + 1.
Operation of the LAPD Transmitter
If a message is to be transmitted via the LAPD Trans-
mitter, the information portion (or the body) of the
message must be written into the Transmit LAPD
Message Buffer, which is located at 0x86 through
0xDD in on-chip RAM via the Microprocessor Inter-
face. Afterwards, the user must do three things:
1. Specify the length of LAPD message to be trans-
mitted.
2. Enable the LAPD Transmitter.
3. Initiate the Transmission of the PMDL Message.
Each of these steps will be discussed in detail.
STEP 1 - Specifying the Length of the LAPD Mes-
sage
One of two different sizes of LAPD Messages can be
transmitted. This is accomplish by writing the appro-
priate data to bit 1 within the Tx DS3 LAPD Configu-
ration Register. The bit-format of this register is pre-
sented below.

The relationship between the contents of bit-fields 1
and the LAPD Message size is given in Table 25.

LENGTH AND THE LAPD MESSAGE SIZE

LAPD Message size is 76 bytes
1
LAPD Message size is 82 bytes
NOTE: The Message Type selected must correspond with
the contents of the first byte of the Information (Payload)
portion, as presented in Table 24.
STEP 2 - Enabling the LAPD Transmitter
Prior to the transmission of any data via the LAPD
Transmitter the LAPD Transmitter must be enabled.
This is accomplish this by writing a 1 to bit 0 of the Tx
DS3 LAPD Configuration Register, as depicted be-
low.

RESULTING ACTION OF THE LAPD TRANSMITTER
The LAPD Transmitter is disabled and the DL bits, in the DS3 frame,
are transmitted as all 1s.
The LAPD Transmitter is enabled and is transmitting a continuous
stream of Flag Sequence octets (0x7E).
