Enabling auto RS485 half-duplex control

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

some Exar UARTs like the XR16C2850 support a feature
called auto RS485 half-duplex control. In this mode the
RTS line has a special role when using the UART for 
RS485 communication.

I did not find a way to enable this mode through the 
standard serial driver. The UART is is detected correctly
but there seems to be no way to enable this mode
out of the box.

So what's the best way to implement this?
A new ioctl? Any idea?

Matthias
