IRDA calls this "three wire" mode. IRDA does both "three wire" and "nine wire" emulation. In nine wire mode, it provides ALL the signals that would be present on a DB-9 port. It does not, however, take the status of the signals from the end device, and run them through the IR link. You get them from the local processor, which generates them according to it's needs, and according to the link state. ************************************************************** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://libretto.basiclink.com/archive - Archives http://www.picante.com/~gtaylor/portable/faq.html - FAQ -------TO UNSUBSCRIBE------- Reply to any of the list messages.
