Sample IMUX Configuration

4.3SAMPLE IMUX CONFIGURATION

The following is a sample of a common configuration.

To perform an IMUX configuration for the setup shown in Figure B-1, in Appendix B, follow these steps:

1.To add channels to an IMUX group: Enter: imux 1 -ac 1 29

(This adds interface 29 to the group id 1 in the imux id 1.) To display the setup so far:

Enter: imux 1

Figure 4-3shows the imux setup for group id 1 so far:

->imux 1 -ac 1 29

2.After all the desired channels have been added to the group (four were put in the group in this example), the group must be enabled:

Enter: imux 1 -eg 1

The screen shows the response to the imux command to enable group 1 in Figure 4-4.
