ON

RTS line is asserted

OFF

RTS Line is unasserted

STANdard

RTS will be asserted when the serial interface is
ready to send output data. Data will be sent if the
connected device asserts CTS and DSR.

IBFull

While the input buffer is not yet at the :STOP
threshold, RTS is asserted. When the input buffer
reaches the :STOP threshold, RTS will be
unasserted.

DIAG:BOOT:COLD will set

RTS to ON.
