S P E C I F I C A T I O N COMMUNICATIONS METHOD ABSTRACT The present disclosure relates to a communications method for communicating data over a data channel that com- prises two unidirectional communication lines. A protocol which is a set of predetermined control characters is used by the communications method and the protocol is used for transferring data between communicating devices. The communi- cations method combines acknowledgements which are control characters of the protocol transmitted in between messages, piggy-backing which is the combining of control characters of the protocol and data messages, and hold-offs with long time outs which cause the devices to enter a standby idle mode waiting for a responsive control character of the protocol. The communications system and method combines these features so as to permit improved efficient flow control of data information between the communicating devices.
