RS-232 DATA SHARERS
The RS-232 Data Sharer allows multiple devices, such as mainframe
controllers, terminals, etc., to share a single RS-232 line. You can use this
device to let multiple terminals or controllers share a single modem or
multiplexor port—so you spend less money on telephone-line lease charges
and modem costs.
The RS-232 Data Sharer is available in three models:
• TL601A-R2 and TL601AE-R2 (RS-232 Data Sharer 2-Port)
• TL553A-R3 and TL553AE-R3 (RS-232 Data Sharer 4-Port)
• TL554A-R3 and TL554AE-R3 (RS-232 Data Sharer 8-Port)
Each of the RS-232 Data Sharers supports the following features:
• Transparency to data.
• Transparency to data rates up to 115.2 Kbps.
• Synchronous and asynchronous data transmission.
• Either hardware priority or round-robin priority for selection of terminal
ports. In hardware priority, requests for access to the shared line are
prioritized according to ports’ letter designations: The port represented
by the letter closest to the start of the alphabet is given access. In round-
robin priority, access to the shared line is strictly sequential: Ports receive
access in alphabetical order.
• Front-panel switches for enabling and disabling the RTS (Request to
Send) signal on each input port. With this feature, you can isolate faulty
units or perform process-of-elimination diagnostics. This is because when
the RTS signal is disabled on a port, that port can’t contend for access.
• Jumper-selectable options: RTS delay (0 or 25 ms), RXD operation (gated
or broadcast mode), hardware-prioritized vs. round-robin port selection,
RTS-timeout period (32 seconds, 10 seconds, or disabled), and RTS-
timeout signal (RXD and TXD or TXD only)
In all applications, the Sharer shares a single RS-232 line among multiple
devices. Beyond that, applications will vary depending on the function of the
device connected to the Sharer’s master port. Typical synchronous and
asynchronous applications are described on the following pages.
2. Introduction
CHAPTER 2: Introduction
9
2.1 Typical Synchronous Application
In this kind of application, the devices sharing the line (the “slave devices”)
are usually controllers at a remote site. The shared line runs from the RS-232
Data Sharer to a modem (the “master device”) that is ultimately linked to a
host computer. The controllers must be configured for multipoint modems,
with the Request to Send (RTS) signal switched. RTS has to be switched
because if a controller keeps RTS high, the Sharer will think the controller is
streaming and deny it access to the line (see Section 4.5).
Suggested jumper settings for a Sharer in this type of application:
√Jumper W2 in A–B position (0 ms RTS delay)
√Jumper W3 in A–B position (RXD Broadcast Mode)
√Jumper W4 (4- and 8-Port Sharers only) in A–B position (sequential
polling)
√Timeout-period jumpers in C position (timeout disabled); settings of
timeout-signal jumpers irrelevant.
The RS-232 Data Sharer is transparent to communications protocol (SDLC,
BSC, etc.), data-encoding technique (NRZ, NRZI, etc.), and addressing.
