The STAT program will allow you to display and change the status
of any COM port. The syntax of this utility is as follows:
┌ ┐ ┌ ┐ ┌ ┐
STAT │ COM1 │ │ INT │ │ ON │
│ COM2 │ │ RTS │ │ OFF │
│ COM3 │ │ DTR │ └ ┘
│ COM4 │ └ ┘
│ PNNNN │
└ ┘
Where NNNN is a PORT address.
EXAMPLE --> C>stat com1 int on
This will enable interrupts on port COM1
C>stat p3f8 rts off
This will turn off RTS on port 3F8
C>stat COM2
This will display the status of port COM2
The INT operator will ENABLE or DISABLE interrupts for the selected
COM port. This could be useful if a piece of software left
interrupts turned on for a port and another port was trying to use
the same interrupt line. You could then turn off interrupts for one
of the ports allowing the other one to work.
The RTS operator turns ON and OFF the Request To Send RS232 line.
The DTR operator turns ON and OFF the Data Terminal Ready RS232 line.
