These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interferen ce when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio fre­quency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction man­ual, may cause harmful interference to radio frequencies. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.
Shielded cables must be used with this unit to ensure compliance with Class A FCC limits.
Change or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party re­sponsible for complian c e co uld void the user’s authority to operate the equip­ment.
Affidavit Requirements for Connection to Digital Services
An affidavit is required to be given to the telephone company whenever digital
terminal equipment without encoded analog content and billing protection is used to transmit digital signals containing encoded analog content which are intended for eventual conversion into voice band analog signal and transmitted on the network.
The affidavit shall affirm that either no encoded analog content or billing informa-
tion is being transmitted or that the output of the device meets Part 68 encoded analog content or billing protection specification.
End use/customer will be responsible to file an affidavit with the local exchange
carrier when connecting unprotected CPE to a 1.544 Mbps or subrate digital ser­vice.
Until such time as subrate digital terminal equipment is registered for voice appli-
cations, the affidavit requirements for subrate services are waived.

CANADIAN EQUIPMENT LIMITATIONS
Notice: The Canadian Industry and Science Canada label identifies certified equip­ment. This certification means that the equipment meets certain telecommunications network protective, operational, and safety requirements. The Department does not guarantee the equipment will operate to the user’s satisfaction.
Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is permissible to be con­nected to the facilities of the local telecommunications company. The equipment must also be installed using an acceptable methods of connection. In some cases, the com­pany’s inside wiring associated with a single line individual service may be extended by means of a certified connector assembly (telephone extension cord). The customer should be aware that compliance with the above limitations may not prevent degra­dation of service in some situations.
Repairs to certified equipment should be made by an authorized Canadian mainte­nance facility designated by the supplier. Any repairs or alterations made by the user to this equipment, or equipment malfunctions, may give the telecommunications company cause to request the user to disconnect the equipment.
Users should ensure for their own protection that the electrical ground connections of the power utility, telephone lines and internal metallic water pipe system, if present, are connected together. This precaution may be particularly important in rural areas.
Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves, but should contract the appropriate electric inspection aut hority, or an electrician, as appropriate.
The Load Number (LN) assigned to each terminal device denotes the percentage of the total load to be connected to a telephone loop which is used by the device, to pre­vent overloading. The termination on a loop may consist of any combination of devices subject only to the requirement that the total of the Load Numbers of all devices does not exceed 100.

Introduction
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The ADTRAN DSU III AR provides a reliable, high speed data connection for customer Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) through Digital Data Service (DDS) lines, DDS secondary channel services (DDSII), or 4-wire Switched 56 network (SW56) lines. The DSU III AR supports both synchronous and asynchronous data communication over the DDS or 4-wire Switched 56 networ ks.
This unit is an all rate DSU/CSU, supporting services from 2.4 to 64 kbps including 19.2 and 38.4 kbps services. The DSU III AR may be used in either point-to-point or multi-point circuits.
The DSU III AR provides both V.35 and EIA-232 electrical and physical DTE interfaces to accommodate a variety of applications. A second EIA-232 interface is provided for use on DDS lines with secondary channel services.
To ensure a reliable connection, the unit features an extended receiver capability which permits operation over long loops (3.4 miles or 5.5 km of 26 AWG at 56 kbps).
In addition to DDS, the unit supports Switched 56 (4-wire) service with dialing accomplished from the front panel. This model is compatible with AT&T Accunet and Sprint SW56 type services.
Figure 1-1 on page 1-2 shows a sample point-to-point application for the DSU III AR.

DDS Overview
Digital Data Service (DDS) is a nationwide service that allows interconnection and transport of data at speeds up to 64 kbps. The local exchange carriers provide the local loop service to DDS customers and may provide data for routing Inter-LATA to an interexchange carrier. In DDS mode, the DSU III AR supports all DDS service rates yielding DTE rates of 2.4, 4. 8, 9.6, 19.2, 38.4 (sync or async), 56 and 64 kbps (synchronous). An additional rate of 57.6 kbps is available in async mode. At the DDS service rates of 56 kbps and 64 kbps, the unit can be configured to run slower DTE rates (async or sync). Secondary channel operation is supported at all service rates up to 56 kbps, provid ing terminal rates of 75, 150, 300, 600, 1200, and 2400 bps. The secondary rates available depend on the DDS service rate configured.

Chapter 4. Configuration Overview
AT Commands
The DSU III AR can be configured and controlled with in-band AT commands from an asyn chronous DTE por t jus t as modems a re.
To exit the data mode and enter the command mode, the asynchronous DTE device must transmit a proper escape sequence or three pluses (+++) to the DSU III AR. A specified time delay must occur between the last data character and the first escape sequence character. This is the guard time delay, and it can be changed by w ritin g a va lue to the S12 re giste r. The default val ue for the guard time is one second. For a valid escape sequence to occur, the DTE must transmit the escape code character three times in succession with delay between each character being less than the guard time.
Once the command mode is entered, AT commands can be transmitted to the DSU III AR to configure most of the options or initiate tests to check both the DSU III AR and the network connections. All command lines must begin with the AT attention code in either capital or lower case letters. The command that follows must match the case of the attention code.
The command line may contain a single co mmand or a series of commands after the AT attention code. When a series of commands is used, the individual commands may be separated with spaces for readability. The maximum length for a command line is 40 characters. Each command line is executed by the DSU III AR upon receipt of a terminating character. The default terminating character is a carriage return (ASCII 013), but it can be changed by writing a different value to register S3.
Before the terminating character is transmitted, the command line can be edited by using the backspace character (ASCII 008) to erase errors so the proper commands can be entered.
Valid AT commands for the DSU III AR are listed in Appendix B, AT Commands on page B-1.

This command is used to pass AT commands to the local modem via the V.25 bis command processor. This allows the DSU III AR to be configured with A T commands via a synchronous interface. The command has the following format:
CNL[LOCAL PASSWORD;]AT[ONE OR MORE AT COMMANDS]
A local pass word may not be r e q uired, depe nd i n g on the prese nt configuration of the unit . Responses to CNL commands are returned in the data format currently configured. Possible responses include VAL and INVn.
CNR (Configuration Remote)
This command is used to pass AT commands over the network to the remote DSU via the V.25 bis command processor. This allows a remote DSU III AR to be configured from a synchronous interface. The command's format is as follows:
CNR[REMOTE PASSWORD;]AT[ONE OR MORE AT COMMANDS]
The remote password may or may not be required depending on the present configuration of the remote unit. Responses to the CNR commands are returned in the data format currently configured. Possible responses include VAL and INVn.
Switched 56 Operation
CRN (Call Request with Number)
When the DSU III AR is configured for SW56 operation, the CRN command causes the DSU to dial the supplied number. The command's format follows:
CRN[NUMBER TO BE DIALED]
If no number is included in the command, the number stored in dial register number 1 is dialed. If no number is provided and no number is stored in dial register number 1, the DSU III AR responds with the call failure indication CFINS (Call Failure Indication Not Stored).
For a DBU unit, this command initiates dialing on the backup circuit. If the number suppli ed contains non-dialable digits, they

Chapter 4. Configuration Overview
are ignored and only the dialable digits are dialed. Possible responses include VAL, CNX, and CFIxx.
CRS (Call Request Using Stored Number)
The CRS command causes the DSU III AR to dial the number stored in the specified register. The format of this command is as follows:
CRS [OPTIONAL SPACE][REGISTER NUMBER 1-10]
If this command is issued without the register number parameter, the INVPS (Invalid Parameter Synta x ) response is issued. If this command is issued and the register parameter is not in the valid range for dialing registers, the INVPV (Invalid Parameter Value) response is returned. Other responses include VAL, CNX, and CFIxx.
DIC(Disregard Incoming Call)
This command causes the V.25 bis processor to return to command mode even if there is an incoming call pending. This allows local commands to be issued and incoming calls to be ignored. Ther e are no parameters associated with this command. The DSU responds with VAL.
PRN (Program Number)
This command stores the supplied number into the specified register. Th e com mand has the following format:
PRN REGISTER NUMBER;[NUMBER TO BE STORED]
If this command is entered with no parameters, the INVPS response is returned. If no register number is included in the command or if it is invalid, the INVPV response is returned. This response is also returned if the number to be stored contains invalid characters. The characters 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0, P, T, and & are valid dial characters. If no digits ar e is sued wi th this command, the specified register is cleared. The DSU responds with VAL.

Chapter 4. Configuration Overview
RLN (Request List of Numbers)
This command causes the DSU III AR to return the number stored in the specified register. The format of this command follows:
RLN [REGISTER NUMBER]
If the register number is invalid, the INVPV response is returned. When a correct register number is entered, the following response is returned:
LSN [REGISTER NUMBER];[NUMBER STORED]VAL
If no register number is present in the command, the DSU III AR responds with a list of all the registers and the stored numbers. This list is followed by the VAL response.

The Loop Rate option sets the loop operating speed. The unit should be set to the rate required by the DDS Service. The DSU III AR also supports subrate DTE data over a 56 kbps or 64 kbps loop. The loop rate must be set independently of the DTE rate.
The default factory setting is A DSU will automatically attempt to adapt to the loop rate. Since 64k and 56k secondary channels look identical on the network, the DSU III will adapt to 56k secondary channel for either loop rate. If the loop rate is known, select the rate from the menu. The various loop rates and format selections are listed in Figure 5-1 on page 5-2. The equivalent AT commands that perform the same configuration functions are shown in Table 5-1 on page 5-2.
Eight loop rate selections are available (shown in Figure 5-1). After selecting any loop rate other than A secondary channel is available. The secondary channel rate is determined by the current loop rate.

Anti-Stream
The A
NTI-STREAM
option is used to select the anti-stream time-out.
The anti-stream time-out is the maximum time the DSU III AR transmits data into the network from the DTE. This feature prevents one DTE device on a multi-drop network from continuously tying up the tra nsmit circuit back to the master DSU. Figure 6-8 shows the menu path used to access the A
NTI-STREAM
options menu. The anti-stream timer is reset to zero when RS changes to the active
state and is updated every second while RS is active. When the anti-stream time-out expires, the DSU III AR stops transmitting DTE data into the network b ut continues to accept data from it. This condition exists until the DTE deactivates the RS input.

Testing and Troubleshooting
TEST OVERVIEW
The DSU III AR performs a variety of diagnostic functions that isolate portions of the circuit to identify the problem source. Tests may be initiated and terminated from the front panel or the DTE interface. In asynchronous mode, AT commands can control the testing from the DTE interface. For synchronous operation, V .25 bis commands can provide test control.
The unit also responds to standard DDS network tests initiated from telco test centers. In addition, it can run several tests such as local and remote loopbacks to aid in problem isolation. See Figure 11-1.

DTE and Loop (LL)
Test Description
DTE
Test Purpose
The DTE & L
OOP
test splits the DSU III AR into two separate DTE
and loop interface sections and then loops the receive data of each interface back to its respective transmit data. The DTE & L provides a bidirectional loopback at the DSU/CSU.
Figure 11-5 illustrates the loopback points and the signal paths for this test.

The DTE O
NLY
test provides a method for testing both the DTE interface drivers and receivers of the local DSU III AR plus its loop transmitter and receiver. For this test, the loop transmit data is connected to the loop receive data at a point close to the physical network interface. This test can be used to verify proper operation between the local DTE and the local DSU III AR. See Figure 11-9.
When this test is implemented, the far unit receives an
OOS/OOF
sage from the network and enters an alarm state.
