This constant defines the maximum HDLC frame size in bytes supported by the HDLC API. MgslTransmit will not accepts frames larger than this and MgslReceive will not return frames larger than this.
The maximum frame size that the SyncLink HDLC Adapter can receive is limited to 65,535 bytes. This count includes the HDLC Frame data and the CRC bytes. Thus, you are limited to a maximum receive frame size of 65,531 bytes if using CCITT CRC32, or 65,533 if using CCITT CRC16.
On the transmit side, the adapter can transmit an HDLC Frame of a maximum of 65,535 bytes, but then the adapter automatically adds the required CRC bytes at the end of the frame.
