Tail Circuit Buffers (SW16-4)
The 3040/V35 (CTS MD-V.35/TCB) has a Tail Circuit Buffer that is automatically selected when a Sub-Channel is set as a DTE. The buffer will provide clock synchronization of the data from the Sub-Channel to the Master Port for Tail Circuit operations. The buffer is de-activated when the Sub-Channel is configured as a DCE. When operating in an asynchronous environment the Buffer must be bypassed. To bypass the buffer in a synchronous or asynchronous application, set switch SW16-4 to OFF (ASYNC). For normal operation in a synchronous environment set SW16-4 to ON (SYNC). When using a tail circuit modem with the 3040/V35 (CTS MD-V.35/TCB), the modem connected to the Sub-Channel, should be set to External Transmit Clocking. The modem at the remote end of the connection should be set to RX-TX Clocking or Slaved TX Clock. This will insure the same clock is present throughout the network and clock slippage will not occur.
Port DCE/DTE Selection (SW5 thru SW14)
Slide switches SW5 through SW14 are used to configure DTE/DCE for each port. Slide Both switches associated with a port to the same position. Example: If connecting a modem (DCE Device) to the PORT, then the port should be configured as a DTE interface. Slide both switches to the DTE position toward the interface connector. If connecting a terminal (DTE) to the Sub-Channel, the port should be configured as a DCE. Slide both switched to the DCE position away from the interface connector. The port is always configured opposite to the interface that is to be connected to it.
