Setting handshaking (flowControl)

By handshaking, two devices control data transfer between them.

A distinction is made between software handshaking and hardware

handshaking.

No data flow checking (NONE): Handshaking is not active
Hardware handshaking (RTS_CTS): Transmission stop is active

through RTS
Software handshaking (XON_XOFF): Transmission stop is active

through DC3 (XOFF)

File system for file operations (fileSystem)

In

fileSystem you define the file system for the serial interface.

This machine parameter is not required if you don't need a special

file system.

EXT: Minimum file system for printers or non-HEIDENHAIN

transmission software. Corresponds to the EXT1 and EXT2

modes of earlier TNC controls.
FE1: Communication with the TNCserver PC software or an

external floppy disk unit.
