Control

ceq

0-3
(0)

-

ceq 0

ceq 3

cd | ncd

Cable equalizer
No control; only used to report carrier
detected
or no carrier detected.
The DMUX has only one (ceq 0) for
its HD electrical input, the MUX has
one for each SD input, 4 in total.

gpi

0

act
inact

gpi 0 inact

act | inact

Free-running vs. Locked to SD
(MUX only)
This gpi control is normally hidden to
the end user. See the ‘cal’ command
under ch. 7.3.3

. ‘act’ means that the

frequency of the HD output from the
MUX is locked to one of the SD
inputs, while ‘inact’ means that it is
free-running. By locking to incoming
SD, frequency drift is eliminated, but
glitches will occur in all 4 outputs on
the DMUX side if/when the MUX
board must change its reference to a
different SD input.

lsr

0

on | off
lambda <wavelen>
lpwr <laser_pwr>
type ( c | t | n )

lsr 0 off
lsr 0 lambda 1310
lsr 0 lpwr 0
lsr 0 type c

on type C 1310nm
0dBm

Laser control (MUX only)
Only on/off is directly available from
Multicon. The other commands does
not affect the laser itself, they just
provide a tool to set information
about the laser fitted to the board.
C=CWDM
T=DWDM
N=None

mtx

0

<input> <output>

mtx 0 0 2

size 4:4 <in1>
<in2> <in3> <in4>

Input/stream shuffler
mtx 0 controls which input is routed
to which stream (MUX) or which
stream is routed to each output
(DMUX).

mtx

1

<input> <output>

mtx 0 0 2

size 4:1 <in1>

Input selector (DMUX)
0: Always optical input
1: Always electrical input
2: Auto (pri optical)
3: Auto (latching)

mtx

2

<input> <output>

Fallback generators (DMUX)
Do not use, not fully implemented per
SW 5.3.

mtx

3

-

size 2:1 <in1>

Currently selected input (DMUX)
0: optical input
1: electrical input

mtx

4

-

size 6:4 < in1>
<in2> <in3> <in4>

Output status (DMUX)
Reports the current status of all
four outputs:
0: stream 1
1: stream 2
2: stream 3
3: stream 4
4: color bar
5: black
Note that per SW 5.3, the fallbacks
are not yet implemented and used.
