Control of Transmitted Data in Half-Duplex Mode
In half-duplex mode, the transmission buffer needs to be controlled in order to prevent collision of
transmitted data. The BOX-PC uses RTS and controls the buffer with modem control register's bit 1.
Transmission and reception gate control by the register setting of port address 4007h is allowed only for
the RS-422/485 (Serial port D). For more information see section, "General-purpose I/O and Remote
Reset" in Chapter 5.
