Data flow control
The table below contains a description of the parameters for data flow control.
Data flow control is not possible with the RS 485 interface. Data flow control with "RTS/CTS"
and "automatic operation of V24 signals" is only supported at the RS 232C interface (see
section " Possible applications for the CP 341 (Page 17) ").

Waiting for XON after
XOFF (wait time for
CTS = ON)
2
Period of time for which the
communication processor should wait for
the XON code or for CTS="ON" of the
communication partner when sending.
20 ms to 655350 ms
in 10 ms increments
20000 ms
Clear RTS time
3
Time allowed to elapse after the
transmission before the communication
processor sets the RTS line to OFF.
0 ms to 655350 ms
in 10 ms increments
10 ms
Data output wait time
3
Time that the communication processor
should wait when transmitting for the
communication partner to set CTS to ON
after setting the RTS line to ON and before
starting the transmission.
0 ms to 655350 ms
in 10 ms increments
10 ms
1
Only for data flow control with XON/XOFF.
2
Only for data flow control with XON/XOFF or CTS/RTS.
3
Only for automatic control of the RS 232C accompanying signals.
4
Depending on whether you set 7 or 8 data bits for the character frame.
Further information
Additional information regarding data flow control with XON/XOFF or RTS/CTS and
automatic control of the RS 232C accompanying signals can be found in Section " Data
Transmission with the ASCII Driver (Page 62) " starting at "RS 232C Accompanying
Signals".
