Introduction This chapter describes the front panel LEDs and back panel connectors. The front panel has one row of LEDs. Two back panel connectors provide the data and DDS or LADS connections. A circular power connector is provided to connect the external power supply. Front Panel The front panel has five LEDs that provide the status of the line.
Chapter 2 - Front & Back Panel Descriptions Back Panel All the cable connections, including one power connection and two signal connections, are made at the back panel of the DSU. The RS232 connector is used to connect the DSU to an RS232 or V.35 device, and the LINE connector connects to a DDS or LADS (Local Area Data Set) circuit.
Switch Settings An 8-position DIP switch is located on the right side of the MT56DSU-S printed circuit board (when viewed from the front, as in Figure 2-3). The DIP switch functions are described in the following table. Table 2-1. Switch Settings...

Chapter 2 - Front & Back Panel Descriptions Shunts V.35 signal levels are more reliable for high speed data and/or longer cable distances. For higher speeds and/or longer distances, V.35 is preferred. EIA-232-D signal levels are intended for data rates of 19.2 Kbps or less and cable lengths of 50 feet or less.
Introduction This chapter describes the unpacking of the DSU, cable connections depending on whether EIA-232-D or ITU-T V.35 interface signaling is used on the data port, and how to configure the unit dependent on your site situation. Once the DSU is configured, then the data port can be connected to your data device. Unpacking The shipping box contains the DSU, power adapter, and a documentation CD with a User's Guide.

Setup Perform the following procedure to connect your cables and, if necessary, change to V.35 signaling on the data port. If the DTE device has a V.35 interface, the internal shunt must be moved to the V.35 position and a V.35 adapter cable must be connected to the data connector (labeled “RS232”).
Page 18
V.35 Shunt Either EIA-232-D or ITU-T V.35 electrical signal interface can be selected on the Data connector. Units are shipped with EIA-232-D signal levels selected. Use the following procedure to select V.35. CAUTION : This procedure requires opening the unit. Like most products of this type, this product contains components that are sensitive to static and static discharge.
Introduction The DSU is set to a default of Normal (non-diagnostic) mode at the factory. When diagnostics are to be run, change the Loopback DIP switch as described in Chapter 2 of this manual. When a failure occurs in the digital facility (Telco equipment), the network will detect the failure and send a repetitive OOS signal sequence to your equipment.
4.1.2 Line Loopback Test This test enables you to test the local DTE, the local DSU, the communications link, and the remote DSU. Use the following steps to perform the Trunk Loopback Test. Set DIP switch #3 on the remote DSU to the down position. Send data from the local DTE, it should be looped back to the local DTE.
4.1.4 DSU Back-to-Back Test This test lets you connect two DSUs with a back-to-back cable to verify proper DSU operation. Using a DSU that is known to be operational, you can test a second DSU that is suspect. Obtain a DSU Back-to-Back cable (#45050000) from Multi-Tech, or assemble one. Refer to Appendix B for instructions on building the Back-to-Back cable.

The figure below depicts a typical Local Area Data Set application. DDS Point-To-Point Application In this application, the MT56DSU-S provides the interface between the DDS line and the DTE at your site. Your network provider will provide (at your request) a DDS line connecting the desired locations. The figure below depicts a sample DDS Point-to-point application.
The MT56DSU-S at the host end is the Master Station (also called the “Control Station”), which typically has RTS forced on. The attached MT56DSU-Ss are called “Remote stations” and have RTS controlled by the DTE.
Appendix B - Interface Signals and Connector Pinouts RJ-48 Connector DESCRIPTION This connector ties the MT56DSU-S to the DDS Network. The RJ-48 connector is keyed for proper insertion of a keyed RJ-48 plug. PIN IDENTIFICATION Description Transmit Pair Transmit pair...
DB25S Connector DESCRIPTION This connector ties the MT56DSU-S to the DTE. The DB25S connector has the following pinout configuration. PIN IDENTIFICATION Description Chassis Ground Transmit Data Received Data Request To Send Clear To Send Data Set Ready Signal Ground Carrier Detect...
The DB25 connector also ties the MT56DSU-S to a DTE with a V.35 interface. When a V.35 interface device is connected to a MT56DSU-S, the internal shunt has to be moved to the V.35 position. The V.35 interface for the DB25 connector has the following pinout configuration.
Loopback Cable (MTS P/N 45640100) DESCRIPTION This cable lets you test the MT56DSU-S when a second DSU is not available. When the DSU generates a signal, this cable “loops” the signal back to the DSU for comparison to the original signal sent. You can order this cable (#45640100) from Multi-Tech, or build one using the instructions below.
Back-To-Back Cable (MTS P/N 45050000) DESCRIPTION This cable lets you test a suspect DSU by connecting it to a known good DSU. It tests the suspect DSU by connecting its Transmit signal to the Receive circuits of the good DSU. You can order this cable from Multi- Tech (#45050000), or build one using the instructions below.
No repairs are to be made by you. Repairs are to be made only by Multi-Tech Systems or its licensees. Unauthorized repairs void registration and warranty.
Appendix Canadian Limitations Notice Notice: The ringer equivalence number (REN) assigned to each terminal device provides an indication of the maximum number of terminals allowed to be connected to a telephone interface. The termination of a interface may consist of any combination of devices subject only to the requirement that the sum of the ringer equivalence numbers of all the devices does not exceed 5.
