UART flow control
You can use the RTS and CTS pins to provide RTS and/or CTS flow control. CTS flow control provides an indication to the host to stop sending serial data to the device. RTS flow control allows the host to signal the device to not send data in the serial transmit buffer out the UART. To enable RTS/CTS flow control, use the D6 and D7 commands.
Note Serial port flow control is not possible when using the SPI port.
