The format for a Call Request Packet is shown below. Octets consist of bits numbered 7 to 0
where bit 0 is the low order bit and is transmitted first. Octets are consecutively numbered
starting from 1 and are transmitted in this order. See the CCITT X.25 Recommendation for
details.
*Semi-octet of zeroes is present only if combined total digits in DTE address block is odd
The first three octets (up to and including Packet Type Identifier) are handled by the Eiconcard
X.25 Development Kit. The rest of the octets are built from information supplied by the
application program.
