Technical Notes

  1. The UCI data segment is used in the CONTRL message for indication of interchange receipt and indication of action on a subject interchange.
  2. The UCI data segment contains all the relevant information of the subject interchange that it is responding for in an acknowledgment.
  3. When FREDI builds the CONTRL message it adds the UCI segment automatically containing the information from the interchange header of the subject interchange it is responding for.

To identify the subject interchange, to indicate interchange receipt, to indicate acknowledgement or rejection (action taken) of the UNA, UNB and UNZ segments, and to identify any error related to these segments. It can also identify errors related to the USA, USC, USD, USH, USR, UST, or USU security segments when they appear at the interchange level.
