Abstract
A system for the communication of data between digital devices uses a unique fault tolerant protocol wherein messages are exchanged in a format which allows for error detection and recovery, flow control and retransmissions. In the particular embodiment described, processors in a system for the recording and display of telephone traffic communicate using the aforementioned fault tolerant protocol.
