This is not normal as far as I know. I can try to test this if you share the code.

The execution is getting stuck just before my application code starts execution, As you can see i the logs screenshot above.

There is no dependency within the application code.

I just say that it looks like there is a dependency just before the application boot.

Is this a normal operation when hardware control is enabled?

Hello,

[quote user=""]Because I do not want the application execution to depend on the CTS line and the receiver chip, is there a way to continue the execution of the application regardless the state of the CTS line?[/quote]

Perhaps you can try to explain why your application depends on the CTS line to continue execution. And also show where in the code that dependency happens.
