There is no flow control for any serial port available on the TS-7390. 
I left a few messages on this forum a couple of months ago about my 
difficulties finding a USB serial adapter where flow control worked 
properly.

The only port with flow control is the port used for the console and TS 
didn't connect the flow control pins on the micro.  I wish they had used 
the second port for the console and wired those pins so there would have 
been at least one port with flow control.

In the final product I guess I'll need to use some DIO lines for flow 
control as I don't want to use a USB serial adapter in the product.
