...have a question re: palm (OS 4.1) serial port / flow control Writing an app which talks to a device using the standard STX,data,ETX,checksum protocol. Since the protocol is known to both devices (when to RX,TX, timeout), i really don't need flow control (RTS/CTS) ...but can't find anyway of turning it off. if i set the control bit srmSettingsFlagRTSInactive only, i can send but not receivce, i always seem to have to set srmSettingsFlagRTSAutoM in order to receive data. i OR'd setsrmSettingsFlagRTSAutoM with srmSettingsFlagRTSInactive, but i think srmSettingsFlagRTSInactive is really just being ignored in this case. My RS232 cable between the devices is just 3 wires (RX,TX and signal ground) but at the palm connector i need to short RTS to CTS. This works, but just wondering if RTS/CTS can be disabled.
