+.Sh NAME
+.Nm dh
+.Nd
+.Tn DH-11 Ns / Tn DM-11
+multiplexer device interface
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Cd "device dh0 at uba0 csr 0160020 vector dhrint dhxint" Op Ar flags
+.Cd "device dm0 at uba0 csr 0170500 vector dmintr" Op Ar flags
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+A
+.Tn DH-11
+provides 16 serial communication lines;
+.Tn DM-11 Ns s
+may optionally be
+paired with
+.Tn DH-11 Ns s
+to provide modem control for the lines.
+.Pp
+An optional argument
+.Ar flags
+may be supplied with the device specification
+in the
+.Xr config 8
+file indicating
+that the line corresponding to
+bit number
+.Ar i
+is not properly
+connected, and should be treated as hard-wired with carrier
+always present. Thus specifying
+.Ql flags 0x0004
+for
+.Li dh0
+would cause line
+.Pa ttyh2
+to be treated in this way.
+.Pp
+Normal I/O
+control parameters for individual lines are managed by
+.Xr ioctl 2
+calls.
+Line speeds may be initiated via
+.Xr getty 8
+and
+.Xr stty 1
+or may be communicated by other programs which
+utilize
+.Xr ioctl
+such as
+.Xr ifcongif 8 ,
+see
+.Xr tty 4 .
+.Pp
+The
+.Nm dh
+driver monitors the rate of input on each board,
+and switches between the use of character-at-a-time interrupts
+and input silos.
+While the silo is enabled during periods of high-speed input,
+the driver polls for input 30 times per second.

+.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
+.Bl -diag
+.It dh%d: NXM.
+No response from
+.Tn UNIBUS
+on a dma transfer
+within a timeout period. This is often followed by a
+.Tn UNIBUS
+adapter
+error. This occurs most frequently when the
+.Tn UNIBUS
+is heavily loaded
+and when devices which hog the bus (such as
+.Tn RK07 Ns s) are present.
+It is not serious.
+.Pp
+.It dh%d: silo overflow.
+The character input silo overflowed
+before it could be serviced. This can happen if a hard error occurs
+when the
+.Tn CPU
+is running with elevated priority, as the system will
+then print a message on the console with interrupts disabled.
+It is not serious.
