Configuration

Signals
Shows the state of serial port signals. Signals are green when asserted (on) and gray when not
asserted (off). Signal definitions are:
RTS: Request To Send.
CTS: Clear To Send.
DTR: Data Terminal Ready.
DSR: Data Set Ready.
DCD: Data Carrier Detected.
OFC: Output Flow Control. Indicates that flow control is enabled on the remote side of the
serial-port connection, and that the Digi device should stop sending data.
IFC: Input Flow Control. Indicates that the Digi device is operating as if flow control is enabled
for incoming data sent from the remote side of the serial-port connection. This signal is more of
an indication that flow control is intended or expected rather than true state information. If the
remote side has a flow-control mechanism enabled, the Digi device will use it.
