RTS/CTS
Pressing this softkey reveals a menu of choices for controlling the
RTS/CTS behavior. This feature is used with RS-232 connections,
including the 83300A Remote Interface.
RTS is a persistent state; it is not affected by an instrument preset or
by a power cycle.
Softkey Location:

RTS/CTS Pacing
Press this softkey to turn the RTS line on and instruct the signal
generator to monitor the state of the CTS line (hardware handshaking).
The signal generator monitors CTS and suspends transmission if this
line transitions to its logically low state. Up to 16 characters may still
be transmitted after the low transition. The signal generator will drop
RTS if its receive buffer is nearly full. RTS will be raised again when
there is sufficient room in the buffer. This setting is not compatible with
an 83300A Remote Interface. Do not attempt to use this setting with a
3-wire connection.
RTS is a persistent state; it is not affected by an instrument preset or
by a power cycle.

RTS On
Press this softkey to turn the RTS line on. In this mode, the instrument
will ignore the state of the CTS line (3-wire connection). This setting is
intended for use with an 83300A Remote Interface, but it will also work
with a 3-wire connection.
RTS On is the default setting for the signal
generator.
RTS is a persistent state; it is not affected by an instrument preset or
by a power cycle.
