> Thanks. Forgot to ask, will I be able to wiggle the DTR and RTS lines. > Timming is not an issue. That is definitely a less safe area than just sending and receiving data, but AFAIK yes, you can. But the timing will be affected much more than the timing of sensing/receiving data. You'd better try it before you commit a large effort to it. And YMMV depending on the brand of converter and the version of the drivers.
