conditions: 1 = ON, 0 = OFF
2
Local BCM, if primary, is receiving 2nd segment after storing 1st, but did not send first segment to secondary BCM; if secondary, received 2nd segment
without processing 1st.
3
Remote BCM, If primary, is receiving 2nd segment after storing 1st, but did not send first segment to secondary BCM; if secondary, received 2nd
segment without processing 1st.
4
This is dependent on the Fast Data Transfer mode either being enabled or not enabled.
5
This is an invalid condition for the primary 1785-BCM module.
