THE HIU AS A SECONDARY

The HIU function appears as a special secondary device to the NM function. In
addition to queuing network requests for the NM function to process, the HIU
function will respond to TIWAY I Primitives 02 — Machine Status, 03 —
Machine Type/Configuration, and 04 — Primitive Format Configuration. The
TIWAY I Systems Manual provides more details on the format and use of
Primitives.
