Notes
Full details of this call's reason codes are found below. This interface is used by OZ internally. For Application level serial port I/O, use GN_Opf to get serial port handle and use OS_Gb / OS_Pb to transmit data. Applications might use OS_Si to reset serial port buffers, and interact with the Panel. Block transfer is implemented since OZ version 4.5.

This call should be useful to install new panel settings or when starting low level (ie. using SI_GBT, SI_PBT etc.) serial operations. It carries out the following:
1. Empty receive and transmit buffers.
2. Reset the XON/XOFF flags.
3. Reset baud rates, parity and flow control settings to the PANEL values.
4. Assert RTS.
5. Resets the serial port timeout to its default of 10 minutes.
SI_INT
SI_INT (L = $06), interrupt entry point.
Internal operating system usage only.
SI_GBT
IN: BC = timeout in centiseconds
Out if call succeeded:
Fc = 0
A = byte received
BC = remaining time
Out if call failed:
Fc = 1
A = RC_TIME ($02) (if no data available before timeout)
Registers changed after return:
....DE../IXIY same

SI_PBT
IN: BC = timeout in centiseconds. If BC = $FFFF then default timeout.
A = byte to send
Out if call succeeded:
Fc = 0
BC = remaining time
Out if call failed:
Fc = 1
A = RC_TIME ($02)

This call will return immediatly if there is space in the transmit buffer, otherwise it will wait until there is space for as long as the timeout. If the timeout is exceeded it will return with an error.
SI_ENQ
IN: -
OUT:
B = number of full slots in the Tx (transmit) buffer
C = number of empty slots in the Tx (transmit) buffer
D = number of full slots in the Rx (receive) buffer

A slot, in this context, is the set of bits required to transmit on character. This will include 8 data bits plus start and stop bits.

If you set the default to $FFFF then when the default is used (by setting a timeout value of $FFFF in get and put byte routines) then the system will wait forever. A soft reset sets the default timeout to 10 minutes. This timeout is completely independent of the system timeout, which is set by the Panel.
