The Model 1186 is equipped with eight DIP switches, which allow

configuration of the unit for a wide variety of applications. This section
describes the switch location and explains all possible configurations.

3.1 CONFIGURE THE HARDWARE DIP SWITCHES

The 8 external dip switches are accessible from the underside of

the Model 1186 (See Figure 2, below).

Figure 3 shows the orientation of the DIP switches in the “ON” and
“OFF” positions.

3.1.1 Configuration of Model 1186

Switches S1 through S8 may be used to configure clocking modes

and line coding. Default settings of the switches are shown in the table
below. A description of the switch options follows the table.

Switches S1 and S2: Clock Mode

Use Switches S1 and S2 to determine clock mode of the 1186.

Switch S3 and S4: Line Coding Options

Use Switches S3 and S4 to determine whether the G.703/G.704 line

coding is HDB3 or AMI (for older telecommunications equipment). The
line coding must be the same line coding prescribed by the NAP (Network
Access Provider). Most applications will use HDB3.

High Density Bipolar 3 (HDB3)

: In HDB3 coding, the transmitter

deliberately inserts a bipolar violation when excessive zeros in the
data stream are detected. The receiver recognizes these special vio-

Note: The Model 1186 units are intended to work in pairs. When setting
the clock modes for the Model 1186 units, one end of the link must be set
for Receive Recover and the other end must be set for either Internal or
Network.
