3-13

F

Ref Clk Phase—Selects or displays the status of the reference clock phase. Valid

choices are Normal and Inverted.

H

DTE Handshake—Selects the control lead mode. If manual mode is selected, each

control lead must be forced ON or else it will be forced OFF. If manual mode is

selected DSR must be forced on or no user data will be sent.

In Automatic DTE handshake mode each lead will be asserted in accordance with

the state of the complimentary lead. In automatic mode DSR is output high and

user data is sent only if the DTE asserts DTR.

DTE Type—Indicates which type of rear connector module (CIM) has been

detected. This field might display HSSI, V.35, EIA 530, EIA 530A, or RS-449. If this

field says NONE then either the front and rear cards have not seated together

properly or a hardware problem exists.

Q1

QUAD Card 1—The Q1 command is used to select which ports on the first QUAD

2164 card will be used to carry traffic for this IMUX 2160 module. If the IMUX

2160 is to use all of the ports on the first QUAD 2164 module type “Q1” and

press

E

NTER

.

At the second prompt enter "1,2,3,4".

In any QUAD/IMUX installation the first QUAD 2164 module must be installed in

an odd-numbered slot in the shelf.

Q2

QUAD Card 2—The Q2 command is used to select which ports on an (optional)

second QUAD 2164 card will be used to carry traffic for this IMUX 2160 module.

If the IMUX is to use all of the ports on the second QUAD 2164 module type “Q2”

and press

E

NTER

. At the second prompt enter "1,2,3, 4".

Whenever a second QUAD 2164 module is used in a QUAD/IMUX installation, it

must be installed in an even-numbered slot.

1

DSR—In Manual mode, this field is used to FORCE Data Set Ready (DSR) on or to

force DSR off. Since DSR must be YES for data to be sent, it is never desirable to

select Manual for DTE handshake and fail to force DSR on.

In Automatic DTE handshake mode this field indicates the current state of Data

Set Ready (DTR). “Yes” indicates the lead is asserted or high, “No” indicates the

lead is not asserted or low.

If DSR is not asserted, no data is sent. If the DTE does not assert DTR, then the

IMUX does not return DSR and no data is sent unless DTE Handshake is set to

MANUAL and DSR is then forced ON by selecting "Yes".

2

CTS—In Manual DTE Handshake mode, this field is used to FORCE the Clear to

Send signal on, or to force the CTS lead to be off at all times. In manual DTE

Handshake mode, if this lead is not forced on, it is forced off.

In Automatic DTE handshake mode this field becomes an indicator of the status

of the CTS lead. Unless the IMUX is out of sync with the far end IMUX, CTS should

follow Request To Send (RTS).

3

DCD—In Automatic DTE handshake mode this field becomes an indicator of the

status of the Data Carrier Detect (DCD) lead. "Yes" means DCD is being asserted

by the IMUX. "No" means the IMUX is currently outputting a low on DCD, turning

it off.

In Manual DTE Handshake mode, this field is used to FORCE the DCD lead on or

force the DCD lead off. It is never advantageous to force DCD off at all times.

4

RI—Not Available with this product.

RI stands for Ring Indicator. Ring Indicator is used on POTS (Plain Old Telephone

Service) switched network modems to indicate that the telephone line is ringing

because of an incoming telephone call.
