TC3x Multiplexer User's Guide
8.3.2 DLC Establishment
The multiplexer control channel must be set up as the first channel followed by all other DLCIs. To do
so, a SABM frame (see Section 8.2.3) must be sent to the TC3x. The TC3x responds with either a UA
frame – i.e., the DLCI was set up, or with a DM frame if the DLCI was not set up.
No provision is made for repeating the request if a response is not received.
The state machine requesting the multiplexer control channel DLCI = 0 is the "initiating station", while
the other is called the "responding station".

8.3.3 Information transfer
A response is not essential for every command – for example, unsolicited code does not require a
response.
