Flow Control EMS

 

Flow control can prevent data loss from buffer overflow. When 

sending data, if the receiving buffers are full, a 'stop' signal can 

be sent to stop the data flow. Once the buffers are empty, a 'start' 
signal can be sent to re-start the flow. Hardware flow control uses 

two wires to send start/stop signals.

 

– Options available: None, Hardware RTS/CTS, Software Xon/Xoff. 

Default setting is 

None
