I mean as per wiki :
(e.g., some RouterBOARD models have reduced serial port functionality)
My rb2011, rb3011, crs125-24g etc say "port does not support hardware flow control" : is it an "hardware" limitation of these machines ??

I need to control some devices that need hardware flow control....

Can you live with USB to serial adaptors connected via USB?

Sindy, this have somewhat to do with my other post referring to USB port....

Do you mean that a generic USBtoSERIAL adapter (i.e. prolific2303) can be used for this scope and hardware flow control is still available ??

If that generic adapter has hardware control, then yes. Let's continue in the other topic.
