Option Values: None
RTS/CTS
Help Text:
Flow control is the handshake protocol.
This setting must match the remote terminal application.
[None] - Configure for no flow control.
[RTS/CTS] - Configure for hardware flow control.
Comments: Flow control is necessary only when there is a possibility of data overrun. In that case
the Request To Send/Clear to Send (RTS/CTS) hardware handshake is a relatively conservative
protocol which can usually be configured at both ends.
When Console Redirection is set to Disabled, this option will be grayed out and unavailable.

PC-compatible applications and emulators.
When Console Redirection is set to Disabled, this option will be grayed out and unavailable.
