When asynchronous devices communicate with a HP 3000 Series 900 computer, one main method of flow control is used: the XON/XOFF protocol. This protocol controls the flow of data between devices and the Datacommunications and Terminal Controller (DTC). Its purpose is to protect devices from data overruns.
