I know that serial ports work by sending a single stream of bits in serial. I can write programs to send and receive data from that one pin.
However, there are a lot more other pins on the serial port connection that normal aren't used but from documentation all seem to have some sort of function for signalling as opposed to data transfer.
Is it possible in any way to cause the other pins that are not used for direct data transfer to be controlled individual? If so, how would i go about doing that?
