Title: Does Microbit Virtual Port Driver support RTS and CTS?
Post by: K1IKE-Joe on 2015-08-25, 14:21:10

I'm trying to remote an Elecraft W-2 wattmeter that has an RS232 interface.  The DB9 connector has RTS/CTS looped toward what would normally be the computer.  I am trying to extend this connection using the virtual port driver to a distant computer.  It appears that the software on the computer wants to see a loop on RTS/CTS to provide flow control. (not sure of this yet).

I wonder if the Microbit Virtual Port Driver supports RTS and CTS?

Not at the moment. There is a new driver in the works that might support that, but nothing promised.
