<p>A system is disclosed which is usable to monitor data-being-transferred in terms of blocks (512 bytes or 256 words) wherein the data-being-transferred is temporarily stored in a RAM buffer memory. Thus, data blocks being transferred from a main host computer to a peripheral terminal unit (as a magnetic tape unit) via a Tape Control Unit (TCU) can be monitored to indicate, at certain intervals, the balance of data residing in the buffer memory during moments between cycles where data has been shifted into and/or shifted out of the buffer memory.</p> |
