Host interface

3.3.10

PingRequest (2Ch)

This command is sent by external host to test the robustness of the local port link with the

ST7580.

If accepted, the ST7580 answers with a PingConfirm command (Section 3.3.11).

3.3.11

PingConfirm (2Dh)

This command is sent by the ST7580 to notify the reception of a PingRequest. The payload

field of the local frame presents the same data received in the previous PingRequest.

3.3.12

PHY_DataRequest (24h)

This command is sent by the external host to request data transmission and it exports the

PHY_Data transmission service (Section 2.3).



If accepted, the ST7580 constructs a PHY frame (Figure 2) that is transmitted over the

power line in accordance with the details expressed in RequestData field (Table 35).

A positive PHY_DataConfirm (Section 3.3.13) is generated at the end of the

transmission.



If refused, the modem generates a PHY_DataError (Table 12).
