Byte 02, Bits 3 and 2 – TMC (Threshold Met Criteria)
The value returned for the TMC bit specifies the conditions under
which the CTS will generate a Unit Attention (6h) sense key when
comparing the current cumulative value to the threshold value.
Threshold comparisons are made when the cumulative value is
updated. Valid values for this field are as follows:
00b – Return Unit Attention when the cumulative value is
updated
01b – Return Unit Attention when the updated cumulative value
equals the threshold value
10b – Return Unit Attention when the updated cumulative value is
not equal to the threshold value
11b – Return Unit Attention when the updated cumulative value is
greater than the threshold value
Important
If you want the CTS to return Unit Attention to notify you
about changes to the counters, first issue a MODE SELECT
(15h) command and send the Control Mode page (Page
Code=0Ah) with the Report Log Exception Condition (RLEC)
bit set to 1. Refer to Chapter 10 for more information.
Byte 02, Bit 1 – Reserved
This bit is reserved.
Byte 02, Bit 0 – LP (List Parameter)
The CTS always returns 0 for this bit, indicating that it does not
support List Parameters.
Byte 03 – Parameter Length
The Parameter Length field indicates the length of the threshold or
cumulative value in bytes. For example, if the value requires two
bytes, the CTS returns 02h for this field.
Bytes 04 to nn – Parameter Value
The Parameter Value field value lists either a threshold value or a
cumulative value for the counter, depending on what you specified
for the PC field in the CDB.
