Re: [ECOS] wiggle with the CTS pin

[Giri Raja <giri_amf at yahoo dot com>]

Thanks for the response. Thats right, when I meant
CTS, its for the remote end. Currently I'm using the
serialB. maybe I can shift the debug port to serialB
and switch the COM stuff to serialA. So if it is the
serialA, how do I do it?

Thank you very much.

Giri.
