Set output delay [ms] inserted between each sent line (default: 0).
--dtr-pulse-duration <ms>
--line-pulse-duration <duration>
Set the duration [ms] of the DTR pulse (default: 100).
Set the pulse duration [ms] of each serial port line using the following key valur pair format in the duration field:
<key>=<value>
Each key represents a serial line. The following keys are available:
DTR - Data Terminal Ready
RTS - Request To Send
CTS - Clear To Send
DSR - Data Set Ready
DCD - Data Carrier Detect
RI - Ring Indicator
If defining more than one key value pair, the pairs must be comma separated.
The default pulse duration for each line is 100 ms.
-n, --no-autoconnect
Disable automatic connect.

HEXADECIMAL MODE
In hexadecimal mode each incoming byte is printed out as a hexadecimal value.
Bytes can be sent in this mode by typing the two-character hexadecimal representation of the value, e.g.: to send 0xA you must type
0a or 0A.
