The segmented LBUS must be used with the enhanced scheduling algorithm described in the Interlaken Protocol Definition, Revision 1.2, October 7, 2008. Among the requirements of this algorithm are:
- All bursts except the last two must be equal to BurstMax.
- Bursts must be written to the LBUS in their entirety before changing channels or writing the next burst.
- The last two bursts of a packet are delineated using bctlin and by knowing the value of BurstMin.
