3.3 Communication flow control
Software flow control (XON/XOFF) and hardware flow control (RTS/CTS) methods can be
selected by specifying the communication parameters.
n
NOTE
When flow control is set to "XON/XOFF" or "none", CTS status does not affect
transmission. RTS is always on.
When flow control is set to "RTS/CTS" or "none", receiving XON and XOFF does
not affect transmission.
When flow control is set to "none", part of receive data might be lost.
3.3.1 Flow control during transmit
Data transmission temporarily stops when the other party's device is in receive busy
status.
Communication parameter
Operation during transmit
XON/XOFF
Stops transmission when XOFF (13H) is received.
Resumes transmission when XON (11H) is received.
RTS/CTS
Stops transmission while CTS is off.
None
Does not perform flow control during transmit.
3.3.2 Flow control during receive
This notifies the other party's device that the controller is in receive busy status.
Communication parameter
Operation during transmit
XON/XOFF
Transmits XOFF (13H) when available space in
receive buffer falls below a certain capacity.
Transmits XON (11H) when receive buffer is empty.
RTS/CTS
Turns RTS off when available space in receive buffer
falls below a certain capacity.
Turns RTS on when receive buffer is empty.
None
Does not perform flow control during receive.
