CHAPTER 2: Introduction

2. Introduction

The Programmable Sharing Device enables up to 4 (TL304A) or 8 (TL305A) modems or terminals to share

a master modem, multiplexor, or computer port in an asynchronous or synchronous multipoint environment.

(Asynchronous and synchronous equipment cannot be mixed on the same PSD.)

MAIN CHANNEL

The main channel transmits information to all sub-channels in parallel.

SUB-CHANNELS

Sub-channels contend to transmit to the main channel by activating RTS/DCD (Request to Send/Data Carrier

Detect) or by data transitions (strap-selectable). When the sub-channel is active, the sub-channel’s transmit data

and control signals are connected to the main channel. When RTS/DCD drops, data transitions stop, or 16 idle

bits are received, the PSD will disconnect and monitor other sub-channels.

Sub-channels can be disabled either manually by front-panel pushbuttons or automatically. If a sub-channel

is streaming and staying active for longer than a configured amount of time, the PSD will automatically disable

that sub-channel. A front-panel LED will illuminate to indicate that the sub-channel has been automatically

disabled. The sub-channel will be reset when RTS/DCD drops or 16 idle bits are transmitted to it from the

attached device.

CLOCK MODES

Three clock modes are supported: internal, external from the main channel, or external from sub-channel 1.

BUFFER

A built-in-buffer compensates for phase differences between the clocks of modems connected to the sub-

channels and the PSD main-channel transmit clock.

An extra-buffer option on the PSD-8 can be activated when the PSD is connected to equipment that cannot

accept an external clock. Examples include DDs (United States) or other digital lines and modems that cannot

be set to an external clock. This additional buffer compensates for phase differences between the PSD clock

and sub-channel clock(s).

3. Installation

3.1 Choosing a Site

• The PSD must be installed within five feet (1.5 m) of a grounded AC outlet.

• The PSD must be within 50 feet (15 m) of the equipment that will be attached to the main channel and

each sub-channel.

• Allow 36 inches (91 cm) frontal clearance for operating and maintenance accessibility.

• Allow four inches (10 cm) rear-panel clearance for the power and interface cables.

• Side-panel brackets can be used to install the unit in a 19" rack. (The brackets can be removed without

harming the PSD.)

3.2 Configuring the PSD Printed Circuit Board

Table 1 on the following page explains each of the configurable jumpers or switches on the PSD printed circuit

board. Figures 3 and 4 show the locations of each of the jumpers and switches for the PSD-4 and PSD-8.

There are two EXT. BUFFER switches on the PSD-8. These are extra buffers—not external buffers. Use the

extra buffers when the PSD is connected to equipment that cannot accept an external clock from the PSD.

The extra buffers compensate for phase differences between clocks. There are many applications where this

might be necessary, but one example would be where multiple CSU/DSUs (each attached to its own leased

line that provides clocking) are connected to the PSD.

Switch S1 controls the buffer for sub-channels 1 through 4, and switch S2 controls the buffer for sub-channels 5

through 8.

CHAPTER 3: Installation

3.3 System Synchronization

ASYNCHRONOUS MODE

Strap the J6 jumper over the ASYNC pins. All attached equipment must be asynchronous. Turn the BIT RATE

rotary switch (BRI) to the correct system speed. No other adjustments to the PSD are necessary.

SYNCHRONOUS MODE

Strap the J6 jumper over the SYNC pins (this is the factory-default setting). All attached equipment must be

synchronous. There are four ways to synchronize the system:

1. Synchronization on the PSD’s internal clock.

• Main channel: Equipment attached to the main channel should be set to external clock.

• Sub-channel: Equipment attached to the sub-channels should be set to external clock.

• BIT RATE rotary switch: Set BRI to the correct system speed.

2. Synchronization on the equipment attached to the main channel.

• Main channel: Equipment attached to the main channel should be set to internal clock.

• Sub-channels: Equipment attached to the sub-channels should be set to external clock.

• BIT RATE rotary switch: Set BRI to the correct system speed.

• Jumper J7: If the equipment attached to the main channel is DCE, strap to NORMAL. If the equipment is

DTE, strap to FROM EXT DTE.

3. Synchronization on the equipment attached to sub-channel 1.

• Main channel: Equipment attached to the main channel should be set to external clock.

• Sub-channel 1: Equipment attached to sub-channel 1 should be set to internal clock.

• Sub-channel 2 through 8: Equipment attached to the sub-channels 2 through 8 should be set to external

clock.

• BIT RATE rotary switch: Set BRI to position 7 (CLK1).

• Jumper J7: If the equipment attached to the sub-channel 1 is DCE, strap to NORMAL. If the equipment

is DTE, strap to FROM EXT DTE.

NOTE: Synchronization on sub-channel 1 is not recommended when the device attached to sub-channel

1 operates in switched carrier mode. This will cause fluctuations in clock frequency and phase.

4. Synchronization on equipment attached to any sub-channel (PSD-8 only).

• Main channel: Equipment attached to the main channel can be set to internal or external clock.

• Sub-channels: Equipment attached to the sub-channels can be set to internal or external clock.
