About This Manual

This manual is comprised of eight chapters. There are also several appendices at the end of the manual, most of which is a condensed version of the information contained in the chapters. These appendices can be used as a quick reference. The information contained in each chapter is as follows:

Chapter 1 - Introduction

This chapter is an introduction to the world of multiplexing. Since you have already acquired the MultiMux, you may have an extensive background in multiplexing. In which case, this introduction will provide a good review.

Chapter 2 - Configuration

This chapter defines the configurations of the MMV1600/3200 series and provides some typical examples of how the MultiMux is configured. The MMV1600/3200 series is available in several models; 16 and 32 channel units with internal command modem, composite link digital service units (DSUs) supporting synchronous communications, and two optional voice/fax channels. The typical examples explain how the MultiMux can be used in various environments.

Chapter 3 - Front and Back Panel Descriptions

Chapter 3 describes the front panel indicators, the switches and jumpers within the cabinet and the back panel connections. The front panel indicators are divided into channel, composite link, command modem and voice/fax channel groups. The back panel provides all the cable connections.

Chapter 4 - Installation

Chapter 4 provides the procedures for unpacking, installing and cabling your MultiMux. After your MultiMux is cabled, an initial power on procedure is provided for you to display and modify the channel and composite link parameters to fit your configuration.

Chapter 5 - Commands

The MultiMux is software-driven and controlled through its command port and the supervisory console. This chapter describes the AT commands and the impact each has on your systems operation.

Chapter 6 - Operating Procedures

Chapter 6 provides the operational information for your MultiMux. The MultiMux operating procedures address the channel and composite link parameters. The command modem operating procedures address the command modem access, dialing, and remote access procedures.

Chapter 8- Service, Warranty and Tech Support

Chapter 8 provides instructions on getting service for the MultiMux at the factory, a statement of the limited warranty, information about our user bulletin board service, and space for recording information about your multiplexer prior to calling Multi-Tech's Technical Support.

1.3 Background

Any data communications environment that has more than one asynchronous line going between common locations can probably benefit by installing a pair of statistical multiplexers (stat muxes). A stat mux performs the function of combining several asynchronous data communication channels into one composite synchronous signal that can be transmitted between two locations more inexpensively than the cost of the individual lines. Figure 1-2 shows a simple communications network. Individual users connect to asynchronous channels and the composite (or aggregate) communications line between the two locations is the "link". Link protocol is the communications discipline used between the two multiplexers and typically operates at a speed higher than the individual asynchronous units connected to each multiplexer.

Figure 1-2. Simple Communications Network

One reason that a stat mux works is that typically an asynchronous terminal device is not used to its capacity. Studies show that as little as 10 to 15% utilization of such lines is a common occurrence. These percentages indicate that the most efficient combination of lines in a muxed asynchronous environment is between four and eight lines. Although the primary reason for installing a mux is to save on communications costs, two other benefits are also present. One is the inherent error correction existing in muxed data and the other is data security. Since a mux functions by taking individual asynchronous data and transmitting it as synchronous data packets, there is an error detection and retransmission scheme built in. Error correction is so vital in many transmission types, such as graphic data and program transmission, that many muxes are used mainly for their error correction capabilities. The other benefit is data security which is achieved by the fact that the individual data streams are encrypted into a single communication line on one end of the link and then broken up into individual components on the other end. Someone wishing to "tap" into a muxed signal must not only have the link protocol, which is typically a proprietary version of High Level Data Link Control (HDLC), but must also know the individual channel assignment schemes and data formats.

1.3.1 Description of Statistical Multiplexing

A statistical multiplexer (also known as a stat mux) is a device that allows several other devices (usually computer terminals or PCs) to communicate over a single transmission line. Sometimes called concentrators, they take data from different devices and combine it into a single stream that can be transmitted, via a synchronous modem, to an identical multiplexer at another location, where the stream is then separated back into its original form. Physically, a mux looks like a box with a bunch of serial ports and some LEDs. The most typical task of the MultiMux is to connect a group of PCs or terminals at one site to a mini or mainframe computer at another site via a single set of modems rather than using individual modems for each PC or terminal.

1.3.1.1 Statistical Multiplexing

Statistical multiplexing is sometimes referred to as statistical time-division multiplexing (STDM). The use of the voicegrade phone line (or any other communications link) is based not on peak data rates, but on effective (or average) data rates. During the peaks, when the sum of the data rates of the channels being served exceeds the data rate of the composite link, a statistical multiplexer saves the excess data in buffers (in effect, allowing individual channel buffers to expand). The buffers are emptied as soon as the activity falls off. The proper allocation of buffer space, plus the implementation of flow control and pacing techniques to accommodate unusually high peaks, allows the use of composite link speeds that are less than the sum of the individual channel speeds. In effect, a statistical multiplexer services only active channels. However, the efficiency thus realized is not the only benefit of the technique. Because composite link activity need not be synchronized with the activity on the individual

channels, there is considerable flexibility in the choice of the composite channel protocol and speed. The use of a synchronous protocol like HDLC provides for error detection and retransmission over the composite link. Thus, asynchronous terminals, which have no inherent error-recovery capability, can enjoy end-to-end data integrity. With the implementation of voice and fax information streams into the STDM, an additional technology was needed to accommodate the time-sensitive nature of voice and fax transmissions. This new technology is called Priority Statistical Multiplexing (PSM) by Multi-Tech. With this new technology, data packets are limited in length and voice and fax packets are given priority. The length of the data packet is determined dynamically according to the link speed preserving the time requirements of normal speech and non-error correcting fax transmissions.

1.3.1.2

Communications

The basic functions of multiplexing are to make communications more efficient, to provide a means of improving accuracy of asynchronous communications by using synchronous techniques, and to improve data security by encrypting several data streams into one coded link. Communications using the MMV1600/3200 can be point-to-point or multipoint. In point-to-point, a MultiMux at a host site is connected to a MultiMux at a remote site. Communications which you need to concern yourself with include those between the two MultiMuxes designed to carry the data traffic (composite link), the command modem communications between sites used to control both locations from one location and any communications between terminals and computers connected to the MultiMuxes. The channel devices can be any asynchronous RS232 compatible units, from dumb terminals to personal computers running asynchronous communications software. The connection between the channel devices and the MultiMux is made through an RS232 interface cable. Asynchronous modems (long haul or short haul), asynchronous modem emulators and asynchronous line drivers (DCE devices) can be used in this connection (up to 19.2K bps) to extend the distance between the channel devices and the MultiMux. Due to the channel switching feature of the MultiMux, channels can be switched to any channels on the remote end. This adds considerable flexibility to your point-to-point communications. You cannot interconnect channels on the same local MultiMux unit. The connection between the two MultiMuxes is the composite link with a Data Service Unit (DSU) providing the interface between the MultiMux and the Digital Data Service (DDS) or dedicated network. The composite data link is full-duplex and synchronous using HDLC protocol. The composite link can use either dedicated (leased) or DDS lines. In addition to the internal DSU's available on the MMV1600/3200, you can use any compatible external DSU or modem. The internal DSU processes serial synchronous digital data over a DDS network, or other four wire unloaded twisted-pair wiring system. Data transmission on the composite link starts at 2400 bps, doubles to 4800, 9600, 19,200 and finally to 56,000 bps in multipoint and point-to-point applications.

1.4 Product Description

The MultiMux MMV1600/3200 series is available in two basic models: a 16 channel or 32 channel unit with internal command modem, optional composite link DSUs and two optional voice/fax channels. The MMV1608 MultiMux can connect up to eight async devices and the MMV1616 up to 16 async devices to its asynchronous channels that transfer data at speeds up to 19.2K bits per second (bps). The MMV3200 series can connect up to 32 async devices to its channels. The command modem allows you to configure your async channels, composite link, origin and destination of the voice channels, and the voice mode of operation. The composite link can be configured for either one or two internal Digital Service Units (DSUs) or equivalent external DSUs or modems for digital communications over a Digital Data Service (DDS) or dedicated network. The voice/fax channels allow voice and fax traffic over the same composite link without the need for a separate voice network. The MMV1600/3200 series has three types of pc boards; the main pc board is called the aggregate pc board, the board that interfaces to the asynchronous channel devices is the channel board, and the third pc board is the voice/fax board that connects to the telephone and fax equipment. A simplified block diagram of a MultiMux is shown in Figure 1-3. The aggregate pc board is in the center of the figure and connects the other two pc boards. The aggregate board is the mind of the MultiMux; that is, it provides the control and data paths from the channel devices and the voice and fax traffic from the telephone equipment and fax machines to the composite link and on to the remote location. This board also provides the interface to the command port for the supervisory console and the command modem interface. The channel board provides the interface to the asynchronous devices such as pcs, printers, modems, if a device is remote, and work stations. Each channel board connects up to eight devices to the MultiMux. An MMV1608 MultiMux has one channel board, MMV1616 has two channel boards to connect up to 16 devices and the maximum is 32 devices on a MMV3232 MultiMux. The channel board is connected to the aggregate board by two ribbon cables that carry data and control information between the aggregate board and the channels. Any device with a serial interface can be connected to a channel board. Each channel board has eight RS232C connectors to connect to the devices. The voice/fax board connects telephone and fax type equipment to the MultiMux for transmission over the composite link to a remote location. This board takes the analog voice or fax traffic and converts it to digital information for use by the aggregate board. Digitized voice or fax traffic from the remote location can also be converted to analog signals and

received by the local telephone or fax machine. The voice/fax board has two identical voice/fax channels. Each channel can connect to a private branch exchange (PBX, a small telephone switch), a telephone or fax machine. Each channel has three connectors labeled E&M, FXO and FXS. The E&M (Ear and Mouth) connection is for connecting to the E&M trunk side of a PBX. The FXO (Foreign Exchange Office) connection is to the station side of a PBX and assumes that an FXS (Foreign Exchange Station) connection is made at the remote location. The type of voice/fax connection depends on the

Figure 1-3. MultiMux MMV1600/3200 Series Block Diagram

application of the MultiMux. That is, if both the local and remote MultiMuxes are connected to the E&M trunk side of the PBXs, then the E&M connection is used. If the local MultiMux is connected to a local PBX and only one instrument (telephone set or fax machine) at the remote location, then the FXO connection is used. The local FXO connection is to the station side of the PBX and the remote instrument is connected to the FXS connection. The FXO connection to the PBX uses a station number on the PBX. The local FXO connection accepts the ringing voltage from the PBX and the remote FXS connection outputs a ringing voltage. If the application is to have a dedicated instrument at both locations, then the FXS connection is used. When the calling instrument goes off hook in a FXS connection, the called instrument rings and the voice conversation begins or the fax transmission starts. To setup a MultiMux MMV1600/3200 series, the async devices have to be connected to the channels, the telephone and fax machines connected to the voice/fax channels, and the composite link(s) connected to the public data network (PDN). The MultiMux then needs to be configured for the channel devices, the origin and destination of the voice channels and the mode of operation for the voice channels, and the composite links for synchronous and full duplex communication over a DDS or dedicated network. The async devices are connected to CHANNEL 1 through CHANNEL 8 connectors on the back panel of the MultiMux MMV1608 with RS232 cables. The MultiMux MMV1616 has eight additional channel connectors for connecting up to 16 devices.

When the voice/fax board is used, connections can be made for either channel 1 or channel 2 or both channels and the types of connections are the same for both channels. If a PBX is being used at both the local and remote locations and an E&M trunk connection is desired, then the E&M connections are used for the desired channels. If a PBX is being used at the local location and a dedicated instrument (telephone or fax machine) is used at the remote location, then the FXO connection is made to the station side of the PBX and the remote location is connected to the FXS connector on the back panel of the remote MultiMux. If a dedicated instrument is being used at the both the local and remote locations for either voice or fax communications over the composite link, then the FXS connection is used. The composite links need to be connected to a PDN either with internal 56K bps DSUs or equivalent external DSUs or synchronous modems. If both composite links are being used, they both have to be connected to the PDN. The internal DSUs are connected to the PDN through the COMPOSITE LINK A or B INTERNAL DSU connector on the back panel. External DSUs or modems are connected to the PDN by the COMPOSITE LINK A or B EXTERNAL MODEM/ DSU connector on the back panel and if the DSU or modem is V.35 compatible, the shunt on the aggregate board needs to be moved from the RS232C position to the V.35 position. There is a shunt for composite link A and composite link B. The supervisory console is connected to the aggregate board through the COMMAND PORT connector on the back panel. The supervisory console connection is also an RS232 connection. This completes a typical hardware setup for a MultiMux. Now the MultiMux has to be configured to talk to the channel devices and communicate over the composite link. Configuration of a MultiMux is accomplished through a combination of setting DIP switches behind the front panel and software commands entered through the supervisory console. The DIP switches determine whether the MultiMux is an eight, sixteen, twenty-four or thirty-two channel multiplexer, whether the composite link devices are internal DSUs or external devices, whether or not the command modem will accept remote access, etc. The DIP switches control the hardware setup and the operating setup is controlled through software commands. The software commands are entered at a terminal connected to the COMMAND PORT which are transferred to either the command processor or command modem in the MultiMux. The software commands are AT commands that configure the channel devices to communicate with the MultiMux and configure the composite link devices to communicate with the PDN. To configure a channel device, the correct channel speed has to be established, number of data and stop bits in a word determined, the type of flow control used and whether or not pacing is active. These are just some of the AT commands that are used to configure the channel devices. When the MultiMux MMV1600/3200 series is powered up, the command processor transfers the stored configuration of the channel devices to the data processor. The data processor takes the configuration information and configures each channel for its particular conditions. The composite link has to be configured for its parameters before data can be transferred. The composite link parameters are determined by more than just AT commands transferred to the command processor. The composite link parameters are determined by what type of device is used, whether it is internal or external, speed, what type of remote multiplexer we are communicating with and a number of line conditioning parameters. The type of device used as the composite link device is determined by whether the device is internal or external which is established by DIP switch settings and by the type of device installed in the MultiMux or connected to the EXTERNAL COMPOSITE LINK RS232C/V.35 connector on the back panel. If an internal composite link DSU is installed in the MultiMux, the DIP switch would be set for an internal composite link DSU and a DSU speed select AT command ($DSUA/BSPxxxxx) would determine the operational speed of the DSU. The MultiMux MMV1600/3200 series is now ready to transfer data from its async devices through an internal composite link DSU.

1.5 System Features

1.5.1 Voice/Fax

With the addition of the voice/fax board into the MultiMux, you now can have voice and fax traffic along with your normal data communications on the same composite link. The two voice/fax channels provide all the necessary interfaces to access a private branch exchange (PBX, a small telephone switch) and all the services provided by the PBX. If a voice/fax channel is connected to the trunk side of the PBX, the remote location has free access to the local public switched telephone network (PSTN). With the addition of voice/fax, a free voice or fax communication can be established on top of the data communication over the same leased data communications network.

1.5.2 Networking

The networking feature adds the capability to design complex networks, it also meets a very basic need: saving phone line costs. Networking MultiMuxes allows the stringing of several MultiMux units together via dual composite links, using "pass-through" channel connections, to any MultiMux in a multinode network. The MultiMux checks for a code that will instruct it to receive the data or pass it on to the next node. Each composite link on a mux can establish rerouted connections with up to four other muxes in a network. Voice/fax channels must currently be connected pointto-point. However, voice/fax channel networking will be available as a future enhancement.

1.5.3 Dual Composite Links

The composite links of the MultiMux are capable of synchronous and full duplex communications over a digital data services (DDS) or dedicated network. The MultiMux has two composite links in which either integral 56K bps DSUs or equivalent external DSUs or synchronous modems can be connected. With dual composite links, another feature is added to the MultiMux in the way of networking. Networking MultiMuxes allows the stringing of several MultiMux units together via their composite links. This feature allows data to be routed over the composite links using pass-through channel connection to any MultiMux in the multinode network. The MultiMux checks for a code that will instruct it to receive the data or pass it on to the next node. Each composite link on a mux can establish rerouted connections with up to four other muxes in a network.

1.5.4 Dynamic Load Balance

A feature of MultiMux MMV1600/MMV3200 series multilink multiplexers is their ability to balance data flow between two composite links to utilize each to its maximum efficiency. To activate the feature you select D (for dynamic) as the composite link for each channel using the MLD command. At that point the MultiMux processor picks the least busy link for transmission. This feature can only be used in a point-to-point network using two MultiMuxes.

1.5.5 Channel Flexibility

The MultiMux permits a great deal of flexibility in configuring channel parameters. You can mix up channel options, including speed, word length, stop bits, parity, flow control, pacing methods, echo and pass-through. Channel control commands let you change single channels or all channels with a single command. By using the downline loading capability or the command modem, channels can be configured at the other end of the network.

1.5.6 Flow Control

Flow control regulates the volume of data entering the buffers. When a particular channel buffer is almost full, a flow control command is issued which stops further activity until the buffer is emptied. The most common flow control methods currently used are Xon/Xoff, RS232C signal control (using DTR or CTS) and ENQ/ACK. The MultiMux supports all three.

1.5.7 Channel Switching

A feature of the MultiMux MMV1600/MMV3200 series is its ability to switch channels between mux units. That is, an individual channel on a source node can be switched to any channel on its destination node. The only restriction on channel switching is that the channel can only pass thoroughly six nodes on its way to its destination. Channel switching adds flexibility to the MultiMux by allowing you to build networks matched to your user needs.

1.5.8 Parameter Memory

A nonvolatile memory for storing configurations and options means that the MultiMux remains configured until you change it. Using this feature, you can configure a MultiMux and save the parameters to memory, turn it off, ship it and use it without having to reconfigure it.

1.5.9 Command Modem

The MultiMux can connect to a dial-up phone network through an integral 2400/1200/300 bps V.22bis-compatible modem called the command modem. The command modem is an asynchronous modem used for remote configuration of the mux. The command modem is not to be confused with the link modem, which is either an internal or external synchronous device handling the data transfers over the composite link between two muxes. By using the command modem, you get the equivalent of a remote Command Port console. Your MultiMux can be dialed into from a remote location for remote testing and configuration. The command modem will automatically answer incoming calls.

1.5.10 Downline Parameter Loading

Operational parameters for both the local and remote MultiMux units can be set from one location. The MMV1600/3200 series can downline load parameters for the data channels, but not for the voice/fax channels. Data channel parameters can be downline loaded to the MMV1600/MMV3200, MMH1600/MMH3200 and the MMH900 series units. When power is first applied (or a Reset command is executed) to the local or remote MultiMux, operational parameters are automatically sent over the composite link to the remote MultiMux. For this function to work, the 8-position DIP switch SW1 on the local (sending) MultiMux must be set to the OPEN position and on the remote (receiving) MultiMux the 8-position DIP switch SW1 must be set to the CLOSED position.

1.5.11 Diagnostics

Diagnostics in a multiplexer network are of considerable importance. When a multiplexer fails there is not just one operator down, but many. That is why the MultiMux is equipped with several diagnostic modes that will test every aspect of the network. The diagnostics include easy-to-execute tests for each channel, the composite link and for various components of the MultiMux unit itself. There are ten different test modes to ensure error free operation. They include Local and Remote Digital Loop tests, switch and LED tests, Nonvolatile Memory test, three other tests, a Watch-dog Timer reset test, and the voice/fax loopback test.

1.5.12 Operational Statistics and Auto-Reporting

Operational statistics provides the activity report for the MultiMux network, and Auto-Reporting provides a means to report on these statistics through the supervisory console on a set periodic time cycle. Statistics such as receive-block errors pinpoint modem or line problems, and flow control time totals indicate channel devices being set at excessive speeds. Two simple commands are all that is necessary to select statistical reporting and time cycle. If your command

port is also connected to a printer, the reports can provide an easy means of generating data for better network management.

1.5.13 Dynamic Buffering

A basic requirement of all muxes is some sort of buffering capability to temporarily hold channel data while it is being assembled into a block. In the early days, a mux was sometimes judged by the size of its buffers. Large buffers are unnecessary in newer designs that include sophisticated dynamic buffer allocation techniques where the amount of buffer per channel is assigned on an as-needed basis. In the MultiMux, each channel is assigned 1K of buffer, but in the case where more buffer is needed, the MultiMux will start assigning additional buffers from the channels not requiring it. In this way a single channel can have up to 8K of buffer if required. When dynamic buffering is combined with efficient flow control and the automatic transmission of data from each channel at set intervals, as in the MultiMux, very smooth operation for each user is the result.

1.5.14 Response Time Control

Response time control is the technique used by a mux to make sure that no user experiences undue delays in performance due to a specific channel using too much link time. This can occur if one of the channels is performing a high volume batch function, such as a print dump or program transfer. There are a variety of priority control (response time) schemes in use by different mux vendors. Some vendors use a switch selection approach where each channel can be given a high, medium or low setting with the low used for those channels requiring higher volume batch transfers. There are also software-sensing response time techniques where the microprocessor actually monitors channel activity, and when a high volume is sensed, that channel is given a lower priority so it will not crowd out the others. The MultiMux response time control method is one where data is transferred from each channel on a timed basis while limiting the amount sent with each transmission. This insures that interactive users will not experience undue delays but, on the other hand, batch activity can still be accommodated. This, combined with a Response Time command and the ability to shut off channels not being used, gives the MultiMux a very efficient priority control system.

1.5.15 Synchronous Data Channel

The synchronous data channel feature allows synchronous data to be multiplexed along with the async data and voice. For example, this feature allows a LAN bridge to be connected to the synchronous data channel and transfer LAN data along with the normal MultiMux async data and voice/fax services over the high speed composite link. The synchronous data channel feature supports synchronous HDLC protocols up to 128K bps. With this feature, composite link B is converted to a synchronous data channel (port B) to which the sync device is connected. The sync data channel is controlled by commands for speed and clocking that allow the synchronous data to flow smoothly along with the async data and the voice/fax traffic. The three types of data are prioritized so that the quality of voice/fax transmissions, the timeliness of synchronous data, and the integrity of asynchronous data are all preserved.

Figure 2-1. Configuration 1

The local async channels can be configured to communicate with any of the async channels at the remote site. The asynchronous channels of the local mux are configured with XON/XOFF software flow control enabled, so that the channel buffers in the local mux do not lose data from the host. With flow control enabled at the local mux, the local mux can tell the host when it feels that it's dynamic buffers are becoming full. For the same reasoning, pacing should be enabled at the remote site printer channels to ensure that all data is received by the printers. Pacing allows the printer to tell the remote mux not to send any more data until its buffers are cleared. Pacing may also be enabled at the remote site terminal channels if it appears that data is being lost at the terminals. The first set of parameters in the following examples are for the local mux and the second set are for the remote mux.
