Apr 10, 2017 at 12:05 comment added Snoop @selectstriker2 Yes, I am only referring to ARINC 429. I shouldn't have said the thing about the serial communications as I believe that it confused what I was trying to ask. I was only using that as an example to say that I believe I've seen a similar kind of pattern involving serial communications in the past... and was not asking about serial communications here in my question. Thanks for clearing that up.
Apr 9, 2017 at 4:10 comment added selectstriker2 I'm assuming the OP is referring to ARINC 429 based on previous questions, hence my edit to the question
Apr 8, 2017 at 20:10 comment added Frank @mins Yeah, I see what you're saying. I guess I'm just not really clear on what's being asked. I was taking a stab with the W/B protocol as that is a somewhat unique protocol to ARINC 429. It'd help to know what protocol (429, 615, 573, etc...) the OP is referring to? It might be a little easier to make an inference about what they're asking that way.

Apr 8, 2017 at 7:53 comment added Frank Is it possible the OP is referring to Williamsburg/Buckhorn protocol in which there is a "Request to Send" and a "Clear to Send" from the respective transmitter/receiver. Once the handshake is made, the data transfer can begin This (page 17) is a slightly better description. I know it's not quite a "heartbeat," but from my experience with standard ARINC 429 at least, the data transmission is continuous. If the data hasn't changed, the same data just gets repeatedly sent... There is no idling as far as I know?

Better title
Apr 7, 2017 at 21:51 comment added selectstriker2 are you asking specifically for ARINC 429 or in general serial communication interfaces?
