    status and initialization history, run throug h flashware d iag nostic s, and  to start or continue system 
    initialization.

    p erip heral eq uip ment.
    Control Link (CL)

    transmission of c ontrol messag es from the DEFINITY AUDIX System to the switch over a DCIU 
    d ata link. The c ontrol messag es are transmitted  over a sep arate c able c onnection and  carry infor-
    mation suc h as c alling -p arty id entific ation and  message-waiting  ind icator status and  control.
    Control Link Mode
