Jan 26, 2019 · DTR and RTS are output pins on the USB-to-serial adapter on the Arduino - the FT232 on genuine Arduinos or the CH340G on the knockoffs. DTR is connected to the Atmega processor's Reset pin through a capacitor. RTS is not connected to anything, so you have no way to read its state.

Does there exist (any user developed etc.) version of the Hardware UART serial library that has support for RTS/CTS based flow control? More interested in the Tx side (Arduino sends data, while the peripheral can back-pressure).

Dec 21, 2016 · Typically, RTS is an output and CTS is an input, so you'd have digitalWrite(RTSPin, HIGH); // Indicate we have data to transmit while (digitalRead(CTSPin) != HIGH) ; //block waiting for other side.

Feb 19, 2015 · The reason for the extra outputs is you can use them to operate the RTS and CTS lines. Just hook them up to spare Arduino inputs and outputs and you can do full hardware flow control from the Arduino.

An Arduino AVR library to add hardware flow control via RTS/CTS to the serial ports. It’s based on the original HardwareSerial files modified to implement the flow control. The library is backward compatible, so it’s possible to compile old projects without any changes.

Naturally, for the RTS/CTS session we will need two SAE J1939 nodes. In my setup that means communication between the Arduino Uno and the Mega 2560 ECUs. The test conditions are similar to the previous examples: The SAE J1939 protocol stack is installed on both systems.

Feb 20, 2019 · RS-232 provides two control lines for hardware flow control: RTS/CTS is handshaking method which uses one wire in each direction to allow each device to indicate to the other whether or not it is ready to receive data at a given moment of time. The RTS pin of one device will be connected to CTS pin of the other device.

Jun 19, 2012 · 1. The Arduino Duemilanove capacitively couples the FT232's /DTR signal to the AVR /RESET, using the /RTS line to pull-up the /RESET through a resistor. 2. The FTDI cable, and Adafruit FTDI Friend (by default) sends the /RTS to Pin 6.

Aug 29, 2015 · // Forward the DTR and RTS signals. Use OUTPUT LOW to pull low and. // INPUT to leave the pin floating. This needs a pullup on the other. // doesn't work there. pinMode (DTR_PIN, SerialUSB.dtr () ? OUTPUT : INPUT); pinMode (RTS_PIN, SerialUSB.rts () ? OUTPUT : INPUT); // from the UART, so something more complex might be needed there.

The following image demonstrates the basic data flow between the transmitting and receiving mode during an RTS/CTS session (i.e. peer-to-peer communication). Note: I refrained from inserting the various timeouts that can occur during an RTS/CTS session. Each individual timeout scenario would require its own flow chart, while the functionality ...
