Communications Phases
The SI-ET3 changes status as described here when a command code or fault is received from the master.

Figure 11 Communication phases
Phase 1: Initial status after power ON
Operation proceeds with a default transmission cycle of 2 ms. The transmission cycle is changed to the time indicated in
the synchronous frame when a CONNECT command is received from the master. Then the phase moves to phase 2 or
phase 3 after a response to the CONNECT command is returned.
Even if a transfer fault is detected in phase 1, no fault notification is provided.
Phase 2: Asynchronous communications
All SI-ET3 commands can be used. Phase 2 starts to count the watchdog timer in the communications frame. The phase
moves to phase 3 when a SYNC_SET command is received, and it moves to phase 1 when a DISCONNECT command is
received.
