General Information
1.1
INTRODUCTION
This
manual
provides
the
information
needed
to
install
and
operate
the
PM-DZll
multiplexed
asynchronous
serial
line
interface
manufactured
by
Plessey
peripheral
Systems,
Irvine,
california.
The
material
in
this
manual
is
arranged
into
four
sections
as
follows:
Section
1 -
GENERAL
INFORMATION.
This
section
contains
a
brief
description
of
the
PM-DZll,
its
configurations,
and
a
list
of
specifications.
Section
2 -
INSTALLATION
AND
OPERATION.
This
section
explains
the
requirements
and
procedures
for
equipment
installation.
Interface
information
and
switch
settings
are
provided.
Section
3 -
PROGRAMMING.
A
description
of
the
PM-DZll
control
registers
and
programming
features
is
presented
to
aid
user
programming.
Section
4 -
FUNCTIONAL
DESCRIPTION.
This
section
provides
a
functional
description
of
the
PM-DZll
and
includes
signal
functions,
block
diagrams,
and
timing
diagrams.
MAINTENANCE
DRAWING
PACKAGE.
A
separate
drawing
package,
MD
701885,
contains
the
parts
lists,
logic
diagrams,
and
assembly
drawings
required
for
a
complete
understanding
of
the
PM-DZll.
1.2
GENERAL
DESCRIPTION
The PM-DZll
is
an
asynchronous
interface
that
connects
a
PDP-ll
CPU
to
8
or
16
asynchronous
serial
lines.*
It
is
a
low
cost,
multiplexed
program
controlled
interface
for
connection
of
multiple
local
or
remote
terminals
at
moderate
throughput.
Local
operation
to
terminals
or
computers
is
possible
at
speeds
up
to
9600
baud
using
EIA RS232C
interfaces

or
20mA
current
loop.
Remote
operation
using
the
public
switched
telephone
network
is
possible
with
EIA
models.
Data
set
control
is
provided
to
permit
auto
answer
(dial-up)
operation
with
modems
capable
of
full-duplex
operation
(e.g.,
Bell
Models
103
or
113).
Remote
operation
over
private
lines
for
full
duplex
point-to-point
or
full
duplex
multipoint
(as
a
master
control
station)
is
also
possible.
The PM-DZll
does
not
support
half-duplex
operations
with
secondary
transmit
and
receive
operations.
Half-duplex
modems,
such
as
the
Bell
202,
can
be
used
on
leased
lines
with
the
latter
restrictions.
Figure
1-1
shows two
possible
applications
for
the
PM-DZll.
Further
applications
are
inherent
in
these
figures.

Hardware
Descriptions
The
distribution
panel
provides
16
communication
lines
using
Cinch
DB25p
connectors,
from
two
modules
(8
lines
per
module),
and
is
included
with
the
PM-DZllA/C
and
PM-DZllE/F
configurations.
The PM-DZll
logic
module
plugs
into
any
hex
SPC
slot
of
the
CPU
or
expansion
chassis.
The
distribution
panel
requires
no
power
and
can
be
mounted
in
a
standard
19-inch
wide
cabinet.
The
static
filter
panel
is
used
to
prevent
problems
caused
by
electrostatic
discharge.
A
50
conductor,
f.lat,
shielded
cable,
connects
the
logic
module
to
the
static
filter.
A
second
cable
connects
the
static
filter
to
the
EIA
distribution
panel.
The
cables
to
modems
and/or
local
devices
are
not
provided
with
the
basic
PM-DZll.
See
Table
2-5
for
recommended
cables
for
data
set
and/or
local
terminal
interconnections.
1.5.4
Test
Connectors
Two
accessory
test
connectors
are
provided
with
each
PM-DZllA
and
PM-DZllE. The PM-H325
test
connector
plugs
into
an
EIA
connector
on
the
distribution
panel
or
on
the
end
of
the
modem
cable
to
loop
back
data
and
modem
signals
on a
single
line.
The PM-H327l
connected
to
the
module
with
the
interface
cable
staggers
the
data
and
modem
lines
as
shown
in
Figure
1-5.
The EIA
test
connectors
are
shown
in
Figures
1-6
and
1-7.
Refer
to
Sections
2.3.4
and
2.3.5
for
use
of
test
connectors.
A

plugs
into
a

FUNCTIONAL
DESCRIPTION
The PM-DZll
can
be
defined
as
three
basic
components:
Unibus
interface,
control
logic,
and
line
interface.
These
basic
structures
are
illustrated
in
a
general
block
diagram
shown
in
Figure
1-9.
1.6.1
Unibus
Interface
All
transactions
between
the
Unibus
and
the
PM-DZll
control
logic
are
related
to
the
PDP-II
Unibus
interface
which
performs
data
handling,
address
recognition,
and
interrupt
control.
The
following
explanations
apply:
•
Data
Handling
-The
Unibus
sends
data
to
and
from
registers
in
the
control
logic
and
provides
the
voltage
signals
which
determine
transmission
or
reception
of
data
to
and
from
the
Unibus.

•
Address
Recognition
-
Preselected
Unibus
address
recognition
activates
the
proper
load
(write)
and
read
signals
which
are
used
to
route
the
in/out
data
to
the
desired
locations.
•
Interrupt
Control
-
This
function
initiates
and
controls
interrupt
processing
between
the
DZll
and
the
CPu.

Control
Logic
Receiver
and
transmitter
timing
and
control
signals
are
generated
by
the
control
logic
which
consists
of
the
scanner
and
the
registers.
Information
from
the
line
interface
and
registers
is
continuously
analyzed
by
the
scanner
which
produces
data
flow
to
or
from
the
appropriate
line.
The
scanner
consists
of
a
clock
and
a
four-phase
clocking
network.

Four
device
registers
are
utilized
to
provide
six
l6-bit
accessible
registers.
The
device
registers
store
input/output
data,
monitor
control
signal
conditions,
and
establish
operating
status.
The
registers
are
accessible
in
bytes
and/or
words
and
(depending
on
operation)
can
be
read
or
written,
which
extends
the
use
of
two
of
the
device
registers
to
four
independent
registers.
1.6.3
Line
Interface
The PM-DZll
is
located
between
the
Unibus
parallel
data
path
and
serial
data
paths
(terminals
or
telephone
lines).
The
line
interface
provides
serial
to
parallel
and
parallel
to
serial
data
format
conversion.
Conversions
for
each
line
in
the
PM-DZll
are
performed
by
independent
universal
asynchronous
receiver/transmitter
(UART)
integrated
circuits.
The
line
interface
also
allows
the
line
receiver
or
driver
to
convert
TTL
voltage
levels
in
the
PM-DZll
to
correspond
to
external
device
input
lines.
