Transmission is possible only if the CTS line (controlled by the Host) is active. RTS/CTS handshaking Software handshaking: (XON/XOFF) During transmission, if the Host sends the XOFF character (13 Hex), the decoder interrupts the transmission with a maximum delay of one character and only resumes when the XON character (11 Hex) is received.
