Show warning when modem is missing (no CTS signal)
 

The CTS signal on the serial port normally indicates the presence of a device attached to the port. If you are using hardware that does not offer a CTS signal, you can disable this option in order to avoid the warning about non-present devices.

Note: This option only applies to the Serial/Modem and Serial/Direct communication methods.

Show warning for file transfer via modem without RTS/CTS handshake
 

The RTS/CTS handshaking method provides reliable control of the data flow between the PC and the modem. If you use serial communication with higher transfer speeds without RTS/CTS handshake, you will very likely encounter transmission errors. Enabling this option will give you a warning if you select more than 4800 bps without RTS/CTS.

Note: This option only applies to the Serial/Modem and Serial/Direct communication methods.

Safety: Prevent closing of program or tab
 

These options can make sure that current activity is not inadvertently interrupted by closing the program.
