RTS 4 This signal will always be held

RTS will be held high when the
interface is ready to transmit data.
CTS 5 CTS is always assumed high The interface will monitor the
CTS signal generated by the host
in response to RTS. When this
signal goes on (high), the host is
ready to receive data.

ignore all data received on the
serial port. This signal must hold
high for the interface to receive
