Parameters

Comments

SYSTem:COMMunicate:SERial[n]:CONTrol:RTS < Rts_cntrl> controls the behavior of the Request To Send output line. RTS can be set to a static state (ON OFF), can operate as a modem control line (STANDard), or can be used as a hardware handshake line (IBFull).

ON

RTS line is asserted

 

 

OFF

RTS Line is unasserted

 

 

STANdard

RTS will be asserted when the serial interface is

 

ready to send output data. Data will be sent if the

 

connected device asserts CTS and DSR.

 

 

IBFull

While the input buffer is not yet at the :STOP

 

threshold, RTS is asserted. When the input buffer

 

reaches the :STOP threshold, RTS will be

 

unasserted.

 

 

DIAG:BOOT:COLD will set … RTS to ON.
