Government Requirements and Equipment Return
Certain governments require that instructions pertaining to DSU/CSU and modem connection to
the telephone network be included in the installation and operation manual. Specific instructions
are listed in the following sections.
United States

NOTICE TO USERS OF THE UNITED STA
1. This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules. On the equipment is a label that
contains, among other information, the FCC registration number and ringer equivalence
number (REN) for this equipment. The label is located on the bottom of the 3160/3164
DSU/CSU, and on the 3161 DSU/CSU circuit card. If requested, this information must be
provided to the telephone company.
2. There are two types of telephone lines associated with the standalone equipment. The T1
network connection should be made using a Universal Service Order Code (USOC) type
RJ48C jack. The Service Order Code 6.0F should be specified to the telephone company
when ordering the T1 line. In addition, the proper Facility Interface Code must be specified
to the T
elephone Company
following framing format and line signaling techniques. The DSU/CSU configuration must
correspond to the T1 line’s parameters. The 3160/3164 DSU/CSU internal modem
connects to the Public Switched Telephone Network using a USOC T
Facility Interface Code 02LS2 along with the RJ1
telephone company when ordering a dial line for the modem. The 3161 DSU/CSU
connects to the T1 network using the multi-line USOC-type RJ48H jack and does not have
a PSTN interface.

3. The ringer equivalence number (REN) is used to determine the quantity of devices which
may be connected to the telephone line. Excessive RENs on the telephone line may result
in the devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most, but not all areas, the
sum of the RENs should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices that
may be connected to the line, as determined by the total RENs, contact the telephone
company to determine the maximum RENs for the calling area.
4. If the 316x DSU/CSU causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company will
notify you in advance that temporary discontinuance of service may be required. But if
advance notice is not practical, the telephone company will notify the customer as soon as
possible. Also, you will be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC if you
believe it is necessary

Overview
The ACCULINKr 316x Series ESF T1 Data Service
Unit (DSU)/Channel Service Unit (CSU) acts as an
interface between the T1 digital network and the
Customer Premise Equipment (CPE), converting signals
received from the DTE (Data Terminal Equipment) to
bipolar signals that can be transmitted over T1 and
Fractional T1 lines. Typical applications include Local
Area Network (LAN)/Wide Area Network (WAN)
interconnection, channel extension, and video
teleconferencing.
In addition to the T1 Drop/Insert port, the ACCULINK
Model 3160 provides two DTE ports while the
ACCULINK Model 3164 provides four DTE ports.
The ACCULINK Model 3161 provides two ports in
addition to the T1 Drop/Insert port and is designed to fit
into the COMSPHEREr 3000 Series Carrier.

with a wide range of benefits such as the following:
• Software configuration menu displayed via an LCD
to permit quick and easy operation and elimination
of complicated hardware strapping.
• Flash memory software download capability to
ensure investment protection.
• Trouble-free installation facilitated by two factory
installed settings which anticipate the most
common applications: either D4 or ESF framing
standards, and B8ZS or AMI line coding standards.
• Security features to ensure network integrity.
• Network management for 3160/3164 DSU/CSUs
provided through industry-standard SNMP.
Multipower source acceptance.
•
• Local or remote configuration and operation
flexibility.
Several loopback capabilities, test pattern
•

ACCULINK 316x DSU/CSU
• Independently selectable DTE interfaces (V.35,
EIA-530A, V.11, and/or RS449/422).
• Flexible timing source, available from the
T1 network interface, the DSX-1 T1 interface, at
least one of the synchronous DCE data ports, an
internal clock, or an external clock.
• Flexible, user-friendly channel allocation.
The 3160/3164 DSU/CSUs are available in a compact
standalone case (Figure 1-1) that can be mounted on a
desktop, shelf, or wall. The 3161 DSU/CSU is available
as a circuit card that is installed into a COMSPHERE
3000 Series Carrier.
Features
The 316x DSU/CSU offers a wide variety of features:
• Integral modem for 3160/3164 DSU/CSUs only
which enables remote operation to enhance
serviceability and increases uptime.
• User interfaces for access to configuration and
alarm information.
• Front Panel Emulation via Windowst-based front
panel emulation software.
Front panel pass-through to access a remote
•
3160/3164 DSU/CSU.
• Async terminal interface support.
• DSX-1 Drop/Insert port.
• Front Panel Access Control feature.
• SNMP Management Support.
User Interface
There
are three ways of accessing the user interface:
• Front panel
which enable you to display information about and
interact with the DSU/CSU. A menu tree is
available which enables control of the DSU/CSU in
the network (see Appendix A, Front Panel Menu).
• COM Port – used for 3100 Series Front Panel
Emulation software which displays the DSU/CSU
front panel on a PC and provides the same
functions as the actual front panel. It is also used
for the async terminal connection (3160/3164 only).
For Model 3161 DSU/CSUs, only one slot in the
carrier can be configured as the COM port; all slots
share the PC.
• MODEM Port – provides 3160/3164 DSU/CSU
functionality from a PC attached either remotely or
by using pass-through via another DSU/CSU
(3160/3164 only). It is also used for the async
terminal connection. This port is located only on
3160/3164 DSU/CSUs.
– provides an LCD and a keypad
Alarm Interface
The 3160/3164 DSU/CSU can be attached, either
locally or remotely, to an ASCII terminal or printer to
display/print alarm messages. The COM and MODEM
ports can be used as destinations for Alarm Set and Alarm
Clear messages. This enables an ASCII terminal/printer or
async terminal to be used to monitor the DSU/CSU for
alarm conditions, but provides a potential conflict if the
COM or MODEM port is also the current active physical
interface. If this occurs, the user interface functions have
priority over any alarm messages that are sent to the
currently active physical interface.
Integral Modem
The 3160/3164 DSU/CSUs contain an integral modem
that enables communication with remote devices such as
another 316x DSU/CSU, or an ASCII terminal or printer.
This is a low-speed (2400 bps), V.22bis dial modem that
provides remote dial-up capability to support
downloading, pass-through, alarm reporting, and remote
configuration and diagnostics. The integral modem can
also communicate with a PC running the 3100 Series
Front Panel Emulation software accompanying the 316x
DSU/CSU.
1-2 December 1996 3160-A2-GB22-10
Alarms can also be displayed on a PC that is using a
terminal emulation package.
Model 3160/3164 DSU/CSUs can be configured to
generate traps on alarms which can be sent to an SNMP
manager via either the MODEM or COM port.

Introduction
Front Panel Emulation
The 3160/3164 DSU/CSU offers the same functionality
through Front Panel Emulation software as that provided
by the DSU/CSU front panel. The DSU/CSU can either be
locally attached to a 286 or higher PC, or remotely
through a local 3160/3164 DSU/CSU’s integral modem. A
copy of the DSU/CSU front panel appears on the PC; full
functionality of the front panel is available by clicking on
the Function keys with the mouse rather than by pressing
keys from the actual front panel.
For 3161 DSU/CSUs, a single PC is used to access all
of the slots in the carrier
single slot containing either a 3151 CSU or 3161
DSU/CSU that has been configured as the Master
Communication Unit. The Master Communication Unit
provides the shared COM port on the Auxiliary
Backplane, so that an attached PC can access any
3151/3161 device attached to the Auxiliary Backplane.
The 3161 DSU/CSU is capable of activating the shared

Front Panel Access Control Feature
Using the Front Panel Access Control feature, you can
disable the front panel so that users cannot manipulate
device configuration options from the front panel. This
feature is especially useful in conjunction with the async
terminal interface or front panel emulation on the PC.
SNMP Management Capabilities
The Model 3160/3164 DSU/CSU supports the Simple
Network Management Protocol (SNMP), V
therefore has the capability of being managed by any
industry-standard SNMP manager. The company provides
an SNMP application tailored for 3100 Series devices that
runs on a Hewlett-Packardr HP OpenView network
management platform. This application enhances your
ability to manage the 3100 Series devices by presenting
the Management Information Base (MIB) information
relevant to these devices in an easy-to-read format. The
functionality provided by the SNMP application is a
subset of the functionality available through the
DSU/CSU’s front panel. The 3100 Series SNMP
application is used to manage and control general device
functions, the Network T1 interface, the DSX-1 (DTE)
interface, the Communications (COM) interface, the
MODEM interface, and the individual DCE ports. For
more information about SNMP management of
3100 Series devices, refer to the
Open Management Application for HP OpenV
Guide.

ACCULINK 316x DSU/CSU
SNMP is an industry-standard network management
system that is used to monitor network performance and
status, and to report alarms (i.e., traps). To function,
SNMP requires a manager consisting of a software
program housed within a workstation; an agent consisting
of a software program housed within a device (e.g.,
3160/3164 DSU/CSU); and a MIB consisting of a
database of managed objects, accessible to agents and
controlled via SNMP, to provide network management
information.
The 3160/3164 DSU/CSU supports a MIB that can be
accessed using SNMP protocol by external SNMP
managers. The following MIBs are supported:
• MIB II – Defines the general objects for use with a
network management protocol in TCP/IP internets
and provides general information about the
DSU/CSU. MIB II is backward-compatible with
MIB I.
• DS1/E1 MIB – Defines objects for managing DS1
interfaces and supports the network and DTE
drop/insert T1 interfaces.
• RS-232-like MIB – Defines objects for managing
RS-232 type interfaces (e.g., RS-422, RS-423, etc.)
and supports synchronous data ports and
management communication ports on the
DSU/CSU.
• Generic-Interface MIB Extensions – An extension
to MIB II that defines additional objects for control
of generic interfaces in MIB II. It supports control
of tests on the DSU/CSU’
data interfaces that are not supported by other
MIBs.

Physical Description
The ACCULINK 316x DSU/CSU series of products
consists of a standalone 2-port Model 3160 DSU/CSU, a
standalone 4-port Model 3164 DSU/CSU and a 2-port
carrier-mounted Model 3161 DSU/CSU.
Standalone Model 3160/3164 DSU/CSUs
The
3160/3164 DSU/CSUs are housed in a compact,
standalone unit containing a front panel for control and
monitoring of the DSU/CSU and a rear panel for
connections. This standalone unit can be mounted on a
wall, an equipment shelf, or an RS-310-C equipment
cabinet with the optional wall-mount kit.
3160/3164 DSU/CSU Front Panel
The 3160/3164 DSU/CSU front panel contains,
• One 2-line, 16-alphanumeric character per line
liquid crystal display (LCD)
• One 7-button keypad (three Function and four
directional keys)
• Twelve light-emitting diodes (LEDs), five of which
are shared between the DSX-1 (DTE) Drop/Insert
T1 interface and the data ports.
Six test jacks
•
The front panel is shown in Figure 1-1.
Two link layer protocols are supported for connection
to an external SNMP manager or network device,
Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) and Serial Line Internet
Protocol (SLIP). The protocol type is configurable using
the configuration options (see Appendix C, Configuration
Options).
Communication with the external SNMP management
system can be through a serial connection on either the
COM port or the MODEM port. Only one port can be
configured as the management link at one time. However,
the 3160/3164 DSU/CSU can be accessed simultaneously
by either the front panel or front panel emulation software
on one port, and an SNMP management system on the
other port. Users on the external SNMP manager can issue
“Get” and “Set” SNMP commands to an object in the
SNMP database maintained by the DSU/CSU. The
DSU/CSU can be configured to issue SNMP traps to the
SNMP manager under various alarm conditions.

Operating the Front Panel
The 3160 DSU/CSU front panel (Figure 3-1) consists
of an LCD that displays messages, a keypad, 12 LEDs,
and six test jacks. The Model 3161 CSU faceplate
contains these same 12 LEDs and six test jacks (see
Figure 3-2), however, the LCD and keypad are located on
the SDCP of the 3000 Series Carrier (see Figure 3-3). A
description of the front panel is contained in Chapter 1,
Introduction. Instructions for operating the front panel for
the 3160/3164 DSU/CSU are listed below. The 3161
DSU/CSU faceplate and the carrier’
same manner
, except where noted.
s SDCP operate in the
LCD
NOTE
You can display a graphical
representation of the 316x
DSU/CSU front panel on an
attached PC. You can also use
the Async Terminal feature which
provides full screen displays for
managing and configuring 316x
DSU/CSUs from an attached
async terminal. Differences in
operation between the front panel
and async terminal are noted
where applicable. Front Panel
Emulation is further described in
the

in an easy-to-read English format, including easily
recognizable abbreviations and symbols (Figure 3-4).
LCD

Figure 3-4. LCD
The
LCD displays two types of data:
•
Messages such as alarms, command/test
completion, and action in progress
• Front panel menu tree information (see
A,
Appendix
Front Panel Menu)
For 3161 DSU/CSUs, the carrier and slot address is
displayed on Line 1 when the CSU is selected via the
SDCP.
F3
Context-Sensitive Menu
This
DSU/CSU is an intelligent device that displays
only valid options for the current configuration.
Therefore, you are only presented with menu choices that
are consistent with the current configuration and
operational state of the DSU/CSU; invalid combinations
of configuration options do not appear. For example,
menus displayed for the Model 3160 (2 ports) and the
Model 3164 (4 ports) differ due to the number of ports
available. Also, if the DSX-1 Drop/Insert T1 interface
selection is disabled, many of the menu choices do not
appear
. Be aware that although all options are shown in
this manual, what you see on your DSU/CSU varies with
your configuration.
Keypad
The 7-button keypad enables you to navigate through
the menu tree and select choices presented on the second
line of the LCD (Figure 3-5).
LCD
Device Health and Status Messages
The
316x DSU/CSU features status messages that
appear on the front panel LCD. Y
ou can request device
health and status via the Device Health and Status branch
of the front panel menu (see the
Device Health and Status
section later in this chapter). In addition, the highest level
status message appears on the front panel automatically if
no front panel action has occurred at the DSU/CSU for the
past five minutes.
Other Displays
The
LCD also lists commands, configuration options,
and test results. In most cases, the top line shows the
command or option name and default value, while the
second line displays options and responses. When a
response is required, select from the options displayed
directly above the Function keys (F1, F2, F3); make your
choice by pressing the corresponding Function key.

The arrows indicate you must use the scroll keys to bring
the additional options onto the screen.
LEDs
There are twelve LEDs on the 3160/3164 DSU/CSU
front panel (Figure 3-6) as well as on the 3161 DSU/CSU
faceplate. The five LEDs on the right are shared between
the DSX-1 Drop/Insert port and the data ports. Refer to
the Selecting the DSX-1 or a Port for LED Display
later in this chapter to choose which port’
s status the
LEDs display.
A green LED indicates normal operation. A yellow
LED indicates a warning (for the DSX-1 Drop/Insert port)
or activity (for the data ports). Conditions are sampled
every tenth of a second.

Front Panel Emulation on a PC
The 316x DSU/CSU front panel can be mimicked on
an attached PC. This front panel emulation capability
allows you to access the 3160/3164 DSU/CSU (local or
remote) through a PC connected to the COM or MODEM
port. For 3161 DSU/CSUs, only one slot in the carrier can
be configured as the COM port to provide access for a PC.
This slot provides access to all of the circuit cards in the
carrier.
Use the front panel display (Figure 3-9) to control the
DSU/CSU from a PC just as though you are operating
from the DSU/CSU’s own front panel. The PC window is
updated every five seconds to show the current state of the
DSU/CSU.

Test Jacks
There
are six Bantam 310 test jacks for signal
monitoring on the DSU/CSU front panel (Figures 3-11
and 3-12). These test jacks allow for four break-in tests
(Network In, Network Out, Equipment In, and Equipment
Out) and two monitor access points (Monitor Net and
Monitor Eqpt).
Test jack functions are shown in Figure 3-13 and
described in T
able 3-6. Note that all tests are located on
the DSX-1 side of the DSU. For other types of DSU/CSU
tests, refer to Chapter 4, Maintenance.

Configuring the DSU/CSU
You have the option of customizing your 316x
DSU/CSU for optimum performance in your network. To
do so, use the DSU/CSU configuration options.
Appendix G contains a set of blank worksheets to use
when configuring your 316x DSU/CSU in the network.
Configuration Option Areas
The 316x DSU/CSU offers four sets of configuration
options located in the following areas:
• Active (Activ). The configuration option set active
for the DSU/CSU is stored here. Before a set of
configuration options become active for the
DSU/CSU, you must save the set to the Active area.
When the DSU/CSU is shipped from the factory,
the Active configuration option set is identical to
both the Customer and the Factory 1 sets. This area
can be written to and controls the current operation
of the device.
• Customer (Cust)
customer-defined configuration options. Customer
set is identical to the Factory 1 set when the
DSU/CSU is shipped from the factory. This area
can be written to.
. This is the set of
Function
• Factory 1 (Fact1). This is a set of configuration
options preset at the company
. This set is
determined by what is considered to be the most
common configuration used in the DSU/CSU
market. Factory 1 options are read-only.
• Factory 2 (Fact2). This is a set of configuration
options preset at the company
. This set is
determined by what is considered to be the second
most common configuration used in the DSU/CSU
market. Factory 2 options are read-only.
Configuration Options
The configuration options are divided into seven
functional groups. Appendix C contains a list of the
configuration options and defaults. These groups are:
• DTE (DSX-1) Interface (see Table C-1)
• Port (see Table C-2)
• Network Interface (see Table C-3)
Channel (see T
•
• General (see Table C-6)
• User Interface (see Table C-7)
• Alarm (see Table C-8)

SNMP Traps
A
trap is an unsolicited message that is sent from the
DSU/CSU to an SNMP manager when the device detects
certain, prespecified conditions. These traps enable the
SNMP manager to gauge the state of the network. The
SNMP Trap Enable configuration option must be enabled
for trap messages to be sent over the communications
link. You must specify the number of SNMP managers
that are to receive traps from this device, an IP address for
each SNMP manager specified, and the type of traps to be
sent from this device. See Appendix C,
Options
for more information about how to set these traps.
Trap types consist of the following:
• General traps – include “warmStart” and
“authenticationFailure”. The device sends a
warmStart trap after it has been reset to indicate
that it has just reinitialized itself. The device sends
an authenticationFailure trap when it has received
an SNMP protocol message that has not been
properly authenticated. These traps are set by the
Gen Trap configuration option.
• Enterprise Specific traps – signify that the device
has recognized an enterprise-specific event. See
Table 3-7 for enterprise-specific traps. These traps
are set by the Entp Trap configuration option.
Link T
raps
•
– identify the condition of the
communications interface, either linkDown (one of
the communications interfaces has failed) or linkUp
(one of the communications interfaces has just
come up). These traps are set by the Link Trap
configuration option. The communications
interfaces for which these traps can be generated
are specified by the Trap I/F configuration option.

Configuring DS0 Channels
The 316x DSU/CSU provides channel configuration
options that allow you to do the following:
Display the DS0 assignments for the Network and
•
DSX-1 Drop/Insert T1 interfaces.
• Allocate DS0 channels on the DSX-1 Drop/Insert
T1 interface to the Network interface.
• Allocate DS0 channels on the Network or DSX-1
Drop/Insert T1 interfaces to particular data ports.
• Clear (deallocate) all DS0 channels from the
Network or DSX-1 Drop/Insert T1 interfaces.
To allocate DS0 channels, begin by defining logical
channel configuration for Network interface, and then the
DTE Drop/Insert interface, and then any ports, if desired.
See Figure 3-24 for an example of a conceptual diagram
of channel configuration.
To complete the configuration worksheets for DS0
channel allocation:
1. Complete the Network T1 Interface and the
DSX-1 Drop/Insert Interface tables (unless the
DSX-1 Drop/Insert interface is disabled) as shown
in Figure 3-25. Figure 3-26 contains a worksheet
for specifying which DS0 channels carry Robbed
Bit Signaling (RBS) information for voice
channels. Figures 3-27 and 3-28 contain a
worksheet for allocating data ports.
Using the worksheets provided in Appendix G,
2.
circle the configuration options needed to
implement the logical channel configuration.
Once you have completed the worksheets, enter this
information using the front panel of the DSU/CSU or the
Async terminal interface. Procedures are listed later in this
section; configuration options are listed in Appendix C.
For additional worksheets, see Appendix G.

Allocating Data Ports
You
have the capability of assigning a specific port
(Prt1...Prt2 for Models 3160/3161, Prt1...Prt4 for
Model 3164) to DS0 channels on either the Network
interface or the DSX-1 Drop/Insert T1 interface using the
configuration options. Three methods are available to
assign DS0 channels to the port:
Block
– Allows a block of contiguous channels to be
assigned by specifying a data port rate and a starting DS0
channel. The number of channels assigned is determined
by the port rate. Only those DS0 channel numbers that
provide enough bandwidth (based on the port’s data rate)
to be used as a starting channel number are displayed on
the screen. These channels are automatically assigned to
the destination T1 interface when the block method is
used and the starting channel is selected.
ACAMI
assigned by specifying a data port rate and a starting DS0
channel. However
assigned is twice the number needed for the port rate. This
is because with ACAMI, every alternate DS0 channel
(starting with the n+1 DS0 channel), does not carry data
from the port, but instead always transmits and receives
all ones.

automatically determined based on the number of
channels selected.

procedure. These configuration options enable you to,

For the 3164 DSU/CSU, there is a

Port4 to 2048 kbps. Thus, the rate

Operation
Timing
The 316x DSU/CSU provides the ability to select a
master clock (timing) source that is used to synchronize
all of the T1 and data port interfaces on the DSU/CSU.
When a master clock source is selected, the DSU/CSU
will synchronize to the master clock and derive clocking
for all of the interfaces on the DSU/CSU. The clock for
each interface will be at the appropriate rate for that
interface (e.g., 1.544 Mbps for the T1 interfaces, the
configured port rate for the data ports) and independent of
the master clock rate. This means that the master clock
rate and the DSU/CSU interface rates may be different.
The DSU/CSU will automatically fall back to the internal
master clock when a failure of the selected master clock is
detected.
3160/3164
NOTE
For Model 3161 DSU/CSUs, the
external clock provides timing for
up to eight slots in the carrier.
Each Auxiliary Backplane must
have its own external clock input.
The DSU/CSU clock source configuration option
enables you to select one of five sources for the master
clock, either the Network T1 interface, the DSX-1
Drop/Insert T1 interface, Port 1, internal clock, or external
clock. If external clocking is selected, you must use the
clock rate configuration option to specify the clock rate.
Two examples for configuring timing are given below. For
more information on the configuration options, refer to
Appendix C. Figure 3-32 shows some common clocking
configurations.

Selecting the Shared

Communication
in the 3000 Series Carrier and an external PC (attached
either locally or through an external modem) occurs
through a shared communication (COM) port (refer to the
COMSPHERE 3000 Series Carrier Installation Manual
for cabling information). Unlike standalone Models
3160/3164 DSU/CSUs, the Model 3161 DSU/CSUs do
not have a dedicated COM port for external access.
Therefore, one circuit card in the carrier must be selected
as the Master Communication Unit, which provides the
COM port for all circuit cards in the carrier
configured as such, the Master Communication Unit
differs from circuit cards in the carrier because it now has
COM port configuration options that can be selected.
These options are used to configure Port 2 on the
Auxiliary Backplane as the COM port for the carrier.

Performance Report
Registers shown on the front panel LCD are listed in
Table 3-11. This data is updated in 15-minute intervals.
Network performance is continuously monitored and
maintained in internal memory registers when the network
interface is configured for ESF operation. The DSU/CSU
After 15 minutes, the current interval is rolled over into a
set of registers that represent the previous 96 15-minute
intervals for the register.
maintains two sets of registers: Carrier Network Interface
Registers (Telco) and User Network Interface Registers
(User). The User registers contain an extra status register
(Status Event).
An interval total of how many of the 96 registers
contain valid data is also kept, as well as a 24-hour total
for each accumulator register. The relationship of the
registers is shown in Figure 3-35.
These registers are accumulators or status registers that
collect performance data for the previous 24-hour period.
