SET FLOW-CTRL
FIXEDRTS, NULLMODEM, HANDSHAKE, NONE
FIXEDRTS (USE FOR CERTAIN “DUMB” MODEMS & RS-485):
• DELAY BEFORE RESPONSE FOR FIXED TIME,
• THEN RAISE RTS FOR FIXED TIME,
• TRANSMIT DATA
• HOLD RTS HIGH FOR FIXED TIME
NULL-MODEM:
• TRANSMITS IF/WHILE CTS IS HIGH.
• LOWERS RTS IF/WHILE RCV BUFFER FULL.
HANDSHAKE (USE FOR CERTAIN “SMART” MODEMS):
• RAISE RTS WHEN DATA IS READY TO TRANSMIT.
• BUT WAIT FOR CTS RCV’D FROM MASTER BEFORE XMT.
NONE (USE FOR CERTAIN “SMART” MODEMS):
• NO HARDWARE FLOW CONTROL
• ACTIVE WIRES: TXD, RXD, AND GND
NOTE: SOFTWARE FLOW CONTROL IS NOT SUPPORTED.
FIXEDRTS
SET RESP-DELAY-US
N (usecs)
• USED WITH “FIXEDRTS” FLOW CONTROL ONLY.
• TIME DELAY BEFORE RESPONDING TO A REQUEST
BY A MASTER.
• USEFUL FOR TUNING RS-485 OR RADIO-MODEM TIMING.
• IMPLEMENTED INTERNALLY IN MULTIPLES OF 208 MICROSECONDS.
0
SET PRE-RTS-US
N (usecs)
• USED WITH “FIXEDRTS” FLOW CONTROL ONLY.
• AFTER RESP-DELAY-US, THIS IS THE TIME DELAY
WHILE HOLDING RTS HIGH.
• USEFUL FOR TUNING RS-485 OR RADIO-MODEM TIMING.
• IMPLEMENTED INTERNALLY IN MULTIPLES OF 208 MICROSECONDS.
1000
SET POST-RTS-US
N (usecs)
• USED WITH “FIXEDRTS” FLOW CONTROL ONLY.
• AFTER DATA IS COMPLETELY TRANSMITTED, THIS IS
THE TIME DELAY FOR HOLDING RTS HIGH.
• USEFUL FOR TUNING RS-485 OR RADIO-MODEM TIMING.
• IMPLEMENTED INTERNALLY IN MULTIPLES OF 208 MICROSECONDS.
