Flow Control
Regulates the data transmission of the PSK application. The Intermec computer is a DTE (Data Terminal Equipment) device. There are several flow control options.
- CTS checking where Clear To Send (CTS) is a hardware signal flow control. The PSK application sets and clears Request To Send (RTS) when it is ready to receive. The PSK application checks CTS when it tries to transmit data.
- XON/XOFF response causes the PSK application to respond to XON/XOFF characters received while transmitting.
- XON/XOFF control specifies that the PSK application transmits XON/XOFF characters to control the incoming data flow.
- XON/XOFF response and control specify that the PSK application responds to and transmits XON/XOFF characters.
- CTS/RTS for DTE-DTE allows for peer connections. Each Intermec computer’s RTS output pin is connected to the CTS input pin of the other Intermec computer. Each Intermec computer sets RTS whenever it is ready to receive data and waits for CTS to be set before sending data.
