4.3.5 Close-down procedure

To close down the multiplexer follow these two steps:
• First, disconnect all DLCIs by sending the DLCI Release command within the multiplexer

control channel frame (as described in section 4.3.6).

• Finally, close down the multiplexer control channel (DLCI = 0) by sending the multiplexer

close down command CLD (see section 4.3.7). After this, both the “initiating station” and
the “responding station” revert to AT command mode.


Before closing the multiplexer make sure that there is no ongoing activity on one of the
channels. For example, check that voice, CSD or GPRS connections have ended and wait
until all pending AT command responses are received.
