- I want to attach several V22.bis modems with V42 and V42.bis to our 3240 and
- 3230 machines at 9600bps using hardware flow control. Although termio supports
- RTSCTS, I cannot figure out whether or not our serial port hardware supports
- simultaneous modem control (DTR CD) and hardware flow control (RTS CTS). Does
- anyone know the answer to this question? The system configurations are given
- below:
-
- RC3240 and four 4113-J Digiboard 8-line serial cards, RISC/os 5.0. What about
- the two serial ports on the mother board with modem control?
-
- RC3230 and one 4011-N Digiboard 16-line serial card, RISC/os 4.52 (soon to be
- upgraded to 5.0). What about the single RS232 port with modem control on the
- mother board?

- thanks,
