Appl. No.:
09/751037
Inventors:
Peter J. Sallaway - San Diego CA, US
Douglas Easton - Westlake Village CA, US
Matt Webb - Woodland Hills CA, US

Abstract:
Disclosed are systems and methods for monitoring and controlling operating modes in a network transceiver. In one embodiment, a computer system is associable with an Ethernet network, and comprises a processing unit, a memory and a transceiver. The transceiver comprises an encoder, a decoder and a controller. The controller controls operating modes of the transceiver, and, specifically, (i) negotiates a communications channel between the computer system and another computer system over the Ethernet network wherein the computer system enters one of a master state and a slave state, and (ii) repeatedly directs, in response to entering the master state or slave state, the encoder to encode data to be transmitted to the another computer in one of an industry-compliant mode and a custom mode until the encoded data is properly received by the other computer.
