Chain In/Chain Out
TDU 120e units and other TDUs and TSUs can be linked
together to form a chain. Figure 2-3 provides an example
of a chain-in arrangement with a PC or a modem. The first
TDU 120e in the chain receives controlling input from the
PC or modem.
Figure 2-3. Example of Chain-in
Subsequent TDU/TSUs in the chain are in a position to in-
take information from another TDU or TSU. This in-tak-
ing of information from another TDU in the chain is
identified as Chain In. The baud rate for the chained units
must match that of the first unit.
Unless locked out externally, the front panel can also con-
trol the unit.
