exchange sequence by telling the analyzer when it has room in its buffer for data and
when to stop the data flow. The peripheral uses buffer threshold indicators (an Xon trigger
character and an Xoff trigger character) to prevent buffer overflow.
. If you choose Y%TM%B., a handshake method takes place in the hardware rather than the
firmware or software. If there is enough room in the peripheral's buffer to accept and
store another block of data, the peripheral sets the Data 'Mminal Ready (DTR) line to a
high state.
