<DCE_by_DTE> and <DTE_by_DCE> parameters must be provided with the same value in pairs (only (0,
0), (1,1) and (2,2) are allowed. The other combinations are not allowed and the "+CME ERROR: operation
not allowed" error result code is returned).

10.7.1Description
Controls the operation of the local flow control between DTE and DCE. It is used when the data are sent or
received.
When the software flow control (XON/XOFF) is used, the DC1 (XON, 0x11) and DC3 (XOFF, 0x13) characters are
reserved and therefore filtered (e.g. in SMS text mode these two characters can not be input).
Since the DTE-DCE communication relies on the correct reception of DC1/DC3 characters, the UART power
saving should be disabled on the module when SW flow control is used. If the UART power saving is active, the
DC1/DC3 characters could be used to wake up the module's UART, and therefore lost. In case a DC3 character
(XOFF) is correctly received by module's UART and some data is waiting to be transmitted, the module is forced
to stay awake until a subsequent DC1 character (XON) is received.
The software flow control (XON/XOFF) setting is not allowed on the USB interfaces, on the SPI interface
and on a multiplexer channel. See the Multiple AT command interfaces for all the behavior differences in
respect to the supported interfaces.
