6.3.2 Auxiliary Channel: Handshaking Disabled
The QSP-200/300 ports may be configured so that the RTS-CTS handshake is disabled. This is
the default configuration. In this configuration, RTS and CTS from the 16C550 UART will be
looped back to each other. In addition, the auxiliary output and input signals will be looped back
to each other. This configuration is shown below:
