2.2 DESCRIPTION
The Patton Model 3022 MicroStatII is a miniature statistical
multiplexer that lets one asynchronous modem communicate with two
asynchronous serial devices
up to 38.4 Kbps, the Model 3022 uses specialized circuitry to monitor
and prioritize data flow. The Model 3022 can be configured so that
upon startup it automatically senses the data rate of the device
connected to either sub-channel. It can also be configured to go into
Data Mode when the modem raises CD. For added convenience, the
Model 3022 allows both local and remote multiplexers to be configured
from local port 1 or 2.
The Model 3022 supports both hardware (RTS/CTS) and software
(X-ON/X-OFF) flow control. Connecting directly to the modem’s DB-25
port, the Model 3022 derives power from the RS-232 interface and
requires no AC power or batteries for operation. Async input devices
connect to the Model 3022 using dual RJ-45 modular interface jacks.
The Model 3022 is housed in a sturdy ABS plastic case measuring
2.66"w x 2.10"l x 0.73"h.
at the same time
. Operating at data rates
The Model 3022 is typically installed by connecting the main
channel to an asynchronous modem and the sub-channels to two
asynchronous serial devices. However, two Model 3022s may also be
connected back-to-back. This section describes connection
procedures, as well as LED indicator function, power requirements,
and flow control requirements.
3.1 CONNECTING THE MAIN CHANNEL
To use both channels of your Model 3022, you must be linked to
another Model 3022, which is usually located remotely and
interconnected with a pair of modems. On one end of the Model 3022,
you will find the asynchronous RS-232 Modem interface. This is a
DB-25 male connector, which plugs directly into the DB-25 female
connector on your modem. The following table lists the pin
connections on the Model 3022's modem interface:

PC/AT™ to Model 3022 Pin-Outs:
The two asynchronous, serial sub-channels of the Model 3022 are
RJ-45 female ports that conform to the EIA/TIA-561 interface (see
Figure 1, below). These ports connect to the two serial devices that will
be multiplexed through the main RS-232 port of the Model 3022. Any
combination of RS-232 devices may be connected to the Model 3022's
sub-channels: PCs, terminals, printers, laptops, Macs, plotters, etc.
Every serial device connected to channels 1 and 2 must have a
special interface cable. On one end, this interface cable must have an
RJ-45 male plug; on the other end, it must have a connector that fits
into your RS-232 serial device. The diagrams below and on the
following page show pin connections between the Model 3022's subchannels and common RS-232 serial interfaces. You may use these
diagrams to construct your own cables, or you may purchase pre-made
cables from Patton Electronics. See Appendix B for Patton cable part
numbers.

3.3 CONNECTING TWO MODEL 3022s BACK-TO-BACK
You may connect two Model 3022s back-to-back, bypassing the
modems. To do this, you must have two Patton Model 3P–MF power
supply adapters (see Section 3.5), and one DB-25 female-female RS232 cable. The cable should be no longer than 100 feet (shorter in
some cases), and wired as a "null modem" or "crossover". The
following table shows how to pin a null modem cable that will connect
two Model 3022s back-to-back:

Connect the Model 3P-MF adapters to the Model 3022 DB-25
ports. Then connect the null modem cable between the adapters. Do
not plug the adapters into their respective AC outlets until the serial
device connections have been made to the Model 3022s.

Where you see the above arro w y ou ha ve three
methods of going to Online Data Mode: 1) by letting
the kill timer ( AT[Kn) expire; 2) by the local modem
raising CD (AT[Xn, where n=1); 3) by keying AT[O to
go directly into Online Data Mode.
The Model 3022 has one LED indicator, which is located at the rear
of the unit, between the two modular jacks (see Figure 2, below). This
LED glows to show that the local and remote Model 3022s are in Data
Mode, and are synchronized with each other.
Port 1
3.5 POWER REQUIREMENTS
LED Indicator
Port 2
The Model 3022 derives all necessary operating power from the
DB-25 interface, and requires no AC power or batteries for operation.
When the DCE device is turned on, the Model 3022 automatically
“powers up”. Note: If you do not use a modem (as in Section 3.3), or
your modem is interface powered, you will need to obtain a Patton
Model 3P-MF power supply adapter. This adapter plugs into a standard
AC wall outlet and supplies 100 milliwatts to pins 7 and 9 of the DB-25
interface.
3.6 FLOW CONTROL REQUIREMENTS
For each of the Model 3022 port connections, flow control may be
set for X-ON/X-OFF (software), RTS/CTS (hardware), both methods or
no flow control (see Figure 3, below). For
most
applications, the serial
devices connected to sub-channels 1 and 2 must support local
Page 6
4.1 LOCAL OFFLINE COMMAND MODE
Since the Model 3022 only accepts ASCII characters,
all command lines must start with the attention code "AT" Local
commands follow a [-directive, and are stored in the local command
buffer. Remote commands follow an @-directive, and are stored in the
remote command buffer. The remote commands can only be serviced
when both Model 3022s are synchronized (in Online Data Mode) and
the local Model 3022 is in Online Command Mode (i.e. after /// is
detected). Before a command or string of commands is executed, the
<ENTER> or <CR> must be pressed.
Rule #2. The user may string commands together in one
command line, and separate commands with spaces. However, the
AT[-directive or the AT@-directive may be followed by only
Each command line must end with an <ENTER/CR>.
The Model 3022 will not begin command execution until it receives a
carriage-return character.
Rule #4.
If you made an error while keying a command, you can
edit your entry before you press <ENTER/CR>. Pressing
<BACKSPACE> once deletes the last character entered. Pressing
<BACKSPACE> repeatedly deletes the entire command line, except the
AT command at the beginning of the line. Note: Not all modems
support the backspace edit function.
Rule #5.
Many commands require a numeric parameter. If you
omit this parameter, it will automatically be set at zero.
Rule #6. To store a new configuration in the Model 3022’s non-
volatile memory, the user must key an AT[W or AT@W command.
9 10
When first powered up, the Model 3022 automatically performs a
self-test, configures itself, and enters
this mode, AT[ commands may be entered to configure the local Model
3022. These commands can be entered through sub-channel 1 or 2 on
a “first come, first served” basis.
The Model 3022 will remain in local offline command mode for 2
minutes (or whatever timeout the user has selected). If the user does
not enter a command within this time period, the local Model 3022 will
connect with the remote Model 3022 and automatically enter Online
Data Mode.
4.2 ONLINE DATA MODE

into one data stream. This single data stream is transmitted through
the modems, and separated back into data channels 1 and 2 at the
remote end. The entire communication process is based upon the
parameters that were set in the command modes.

you hit <ENTER/CR>.
5.3 COMPLETE "AT" COMMAND SET
The Model 3022 command set has two types of commands:
Mode
Setting Commands
, and
Channel Configuration Commands
. The Mode
Setting Commands select operating modes and parameter values for
the Model 3022. The Channel Configuration Commands change the
configuration of the channel that you have selected. Both will have an
immediate effect when you press the <ENTER/CR> key. In order to
store the commands in non-volatile memory, you must key AT[W or
AT@W after the command have been entered.
5.3.1 MODE SETTING COMMANDS
The Mode Setting Commands select operating modes and
parameter values for the Model 3022. The letter “n” that follows the
command letter represents a numeric value. The text describes valid
choices, where (*) is the initial selection after a software reset T
command.

AT Command line prefix. The attention command precedes all
other commands listed below.
[ Directs the local Model 3022 to execute the following
commands. The Model 3022 discards all characters before
the “[“ character, unless it has a connection to a remote
Model 3022 or you have enabled modem commands.
Mode Setting Commands (continued)
________________________________________________________
Command Function
________________________________________________________
@ Directs the remote Model 3022 to execute the following
commands. The remote Model 3022 responds to all the
commands after the “@” character and returns the result
code. The local unit does not process those commands.
The local Model 3022 rejects the command line if: (a) the
@ command is not immediately following the AT prefix, (b)
the local Model 3022 does not have a connection to the
remote Model 3022, and (c) the remote Model 3022 is in
Local Online Command Mode.
\\\ This command has two functions:
1) If entered while in pass through mode (AT[Y0), local
mux will leave that mode and return to offline command
mode.
2) If received from online data mode, either from subchannel 1 or 2, local mux will enter online command mode
on that particular channel
Cn Selects channel number for subsequent channel
configuration commands. At the start of each command
line, selection reverts to “0 deselects any channel”.
*n = 0, deselects any channel
n = 2, channel 2
n = 1, channel 1
n = 3, communication link (modem)
Dn Tells the remote Model 3022 to enter Remote Online
Command Mode, so that it can be configured. Also tells
the remote Model 3022 to return to Online Data Mode
when configuration is finished. (Note: This command must
be preceded by the AT[ command, and can only be used
when the local Model 3022 is in Local Online Command
Mode).
n = 0, tells the remote Model 3022 to exit Remote
Online Command Mode and return to Online Data
Mode.
11 12
Besides echoing back AT commands, the Model 3022 returns its
own result codes to sub-channel 1 after executing a command. The
result codes indicate whether or not the execution was satisfactory. You
may define result codes as English words (Q0), or numeric digits (Q1),
or you may disable them entirely (Q2). The chart on the following page
describes these codes.

n = 1, tells the remote Model 3022 to enter Remote
Online Command Mode. The following statements
apply:
• If this command was entered on local sub-channel
1, then it will request sub-channel 1 of the remote
Model 3022 to enter Remote Online Command
mode. Sub-channel 2 will remain in Online Data
Mode.
• After this command is entered, only AT commands
followed by @ will be sent to the remote Model 3022.
H Hangup/disconnect command. Enter when the local Model
3022 is in Local Online Command Mode. Upon receiving
this command, the local Model 3022 will drop DTR at the
composite port for approximately 250 msec, and return to
Local Offline Command Mode.
Jn Selects XON character “n”, where “n” is a single ASCII
character, either a control character or an upper or lower
case alpha character (A through Z, or a through z). NULL,
ETX, STX and Carriage Return characters are not allowed.
Kn Sets the "no activity kill timer" (times out of Local Offline
Command Mode or PassThru Mode and enters Online
Data Mode if no activity is detected) in one quarter minute
increments. Valid values are 0 thru 15. K8 is the default,
resulting an a 2 minute command mode time out. The
timer starts running when the "T" key of the "AT" command
is pressed. Note: this time limit should not be set too
short, or time outs will occur during the entry of AT
commands.

Local Offline Command Mode indefinitely, until either CD of
the main channel becomes active (if this option is enabled)
or an AT[0 command is entered.]
Nn Selects XOFF character “n”, where “n” is a single ASCII
character, either a control character or an upper or lower
case alpha character (A through Z, or a through z). NULL,
ETX, STX and Carriage Return characters are not allowed.

W Stores configuration into non-volatile memory
Xn Enables or disables entry into data mode based upon the
status of carrier detect (CD) at the composite port. If
enabled, the Model 3022 will enter data mode when CD is
raised, and exit data mode to go back to offline command
mode when CD goes off. If disabled, the status of CD will
not effect whether or not the Model 3022 enters data
mode.
*n = 0, CD activation of data mode disabled
n = 1, CD activation of data mode enabled
Yn This command has two concurrent functions: 1) Causes
local Model 3022 to enter PassThru Mode. 2) Enables or
disables multiplexer operation. If the AT command to
disable is issued through channel 1, the Model 3022
logically connects channel 1 to the communication link and
disables channel 2. If the AT command to disable is
issued through channel 2, the Model 3022 logically
connects channel 2 to the communication link and disables
channel 1. By disabling the multiplexer operation, you use
the attached modem or serial device for any single channel
purpose without physically disconnecting the Model 3022.
You only issue this to the local Model 3022.
n = 0, disable multiplexer
(Note: This option will not be stored in non-volatile
memory. Multiplexer operation will be enabled again if
AT[Z or \\\ is entered, or upon power up reset
5.3.2 CHANNEL CONFIGURATION COMMANDS
The following commands change the configuration of the channel
that you select with the Cn command. The Cn command must be in the
command line before a channel configuration command, or the Model
3022 rejects the configuration command. The letter “n” that follows the
command letter represents a numeric value. The text describes the
valid choices, where the first choice (*) is the initial selection after a
software reset T or Z command.

6.0 TUTORIAL
This section provides basic step-by-step instructions for use of the
Model 3022. Using these instructions, plus the AT command
descriptions in Section 5.0, you should be able to operate the Model
3022 in almost any application. If you have additional questions, do not
hesitate to contact Patton Technical Support at (301)975-1007.
When going through the step-by step instructions, use Figure 5
(below) as a guide to “walk” from mode to mode. This Tutorial assumes
a typical installation, where two Model 3022s are connected to each
other via modem link, and each Model 3022 sub-channel port is
connected to a PC or similar serial RS-232 device.
Sn Selects the number of stop bits for the channel.
*n = 1, 1 stop bit
n = 0, 2 stop bits

Step #1 - Verifying Local Setup Parameters
Step #2 - Dialing the Local Modem (continued)
The first step in using the Model 3022 is checking to see that the
local Model 3022 is connected and configured properly. Follow
these instructions:
1) Power up the local modem. This should power up the local
Model 3022 and put the unit automatically in Local Offline
Command Mode. You will now have 2 minutes to key in the next
command before the Model 3022 times out and goes into Online
Data Mode. (If you do time out and go to Online Data Mode, you
will not be able to enter any commands. Simply Key \\\, then AT[H
to return to Local Offline Command Mode.)
2) Key AT[ from the terminal connected to port 1 or port 2. The
unit responds “OK” to let you know you are in a command mode.
3) Key AT[V3 to view the setup parameters of the local Model 3022
DB-25 port. Check to see that these parameters match those of
your local modem. If not, change the necessary parameters using
the AT[ commands listed in Section 5.0.
4) Key AT[V1 and repeat the above process for sub-channel 1.
5) Key AT[V2 and repeat the above process for sub-channel 2.
6) If all three sets of parameters match those of your system, move
to step #2.
3) Go to Online Data Mode. There are three ways you can do this:
The first way is to wait for the “no activity kill timer” to expire, after
which you will go automatically into Online Data Mode. In the
default setting, this should take about 20-30 seconds after you
have dialed the modem. Second, you can key AT[O to go directly
from PassThru Mode to Online Data Mode. Third, if you have set
the AT[Xn parameter to n=1 and the AT[Kn parameter to n=0, the
Model 3022 will go into Online Data Mode as soon as it sees CD
on the modem.
Step #3 - Verifying the Remote Setup Parameters
If you have performed steps 1 and 2 correctly, the Local Model
3022 should be in Online Data Mode, and you should have an active
connection between the local and remote modems. Check to see that
the activity LED on your local Model 3022 is ON. If not, consult Section
7.0 Troubleshooting.
Assuming that you have a good connection and are in Online Data
Mode, the next step is to verify the setup parameters of the remote
Model 3022. Follow these instructions:
1) Key \\\ to go to Local Online Command Mode. This will keep
your modem connection active, but will allow you to enter
commands as well (remember, you cannot enter commands in
Online Data Mode).
Step #2 - Dialing the Local Modem
After confirming the proper configuration of the local Model 3022,
the next step is to dial the local modem so you can make a connection
to the remote modem and Model 3022. Follow these instructions:
1) Key AT[Y0 to go from Local Offline Command Mode to
PassThru Mode. The unit responds “OK”. You are now connected
directly to your local modem, with the multiplexing function of the
local Model 3022 disabled. It is as if your terminal has a straight
through connection to the modem.
2) Dial the local modem as you normally would if directly
connected. (example: ATDT13019751000). After handshaking
procedures, the unit responds “Connect 9600”.
(continued)
19 20
2) Key AT[D1 to go to Remote Online Command Mode. This will
let you send commands to the
you are in Remote Online Command Mode, key AT@. The unit
should respond “OK”.
3) Key AT@V3 to view the setup parameters of the remote Model
3022 DB-25 port. Check to see that these parameters match
those of your local modem. If not, change the necessary
parameters using the AT@ commands listed in Section 5.0.
4) Key AT@V1 and repeat the above process for sub-channel 1.
5) Key AT@V2 and repeat the above process for sub-channel 2.
6) If all three sets of parameters match those of your system, move
to step #4.

If you have performed steps 1 thru 3 correctly, all four serial
devices (two at the local end and two at the remote end) should be set
up to communicate with each other as if they were connected back to
back. (Note: be certain that the remote devices are turned on and that
all physical connections are made properly.) To enable end-to-end data
transmission, follow these instructions:
1) Key AT[D0 to go from Remote Online Command Mode to Local
Online Command Mode. The unit responds “OK”.
2) Key AT[O to go from Local Online Command Mode to Online
Data Mode. The unit will not issue a response because it is no
longer in a command mode.
Step #5 - Ending the Connection
If you have performed steps 1 thru 4 successfully, your four serial
devices should be able to communicate across the modem link. If this
is not happening, consult Section 7.0 Troubleshooting. The only
remaining step is to end the connection. Follow these instructions:
1) Key \\\ to go from Online Data Mode to Local Online Command
Mode. The unit responds “OK”.
2) Key AT[H to hangup/disconnect the modem link and return to
Local Offline Command Mode. The unit responds “OK”.
3) When the local modem is powered down, the Model 3022 will
power down as well. Any configuration changes you have entered
will be stored in the Model 3022’s non-volatile memory if they have
been saved with the AT[W or AT@W command.
