ABSTRACT:
Data flow control is achieved by use of variable length flags delimiting information packets whereby longer flags result in less information flow and shorter flags result in greater information flow. A single channel carries message data as well as status and command data in information packets delimited by the variable length flags. The channel runs continuously such as to provide a constant flow of status and command data, yet includes flow control for preventing overflow and underflow of message data at the receiving end of the channel.
