Abstract
A method and system for extensions to earlier patents dealing with the implementation of the InterSystem Channel (ISC) link architecture. First, it describes hardware state machines that handle all valid link messaging sequences without any processor involvement. These state machines also process larger commands and responses that may be divided into multiple frame segments. Finally, the missing frame detection is expanded for the multi frame segment commands and responses.
