Thanks. I have it working now in both terminals. basically I changed the CLI library to APP_UART_FLOW_CONTROL_DISABLED and placed the CTS and RTS pins as unused w/ 0xFFFFFFFF.

I recommend using Putty. CLI implements standard VT100 commands and it is easy to configure Putty like that. Please see related topic: devzone.nordicsemi.com/.../

Important:

The most important setting for you is "Keyboard" - last picture.
When you are using serial connection you shall not update "Terminal" settings - middle picture. In case of serial connection "Local echo" and "Local line editing" shall stay "auto".

Update: PuTTY works!. Basically what Tera Term is not doing is taking input. It does print. Anyway, if there is a way of making it work for Tera Term I would appreciate it.

I am using Tera Term VT. The way I know it is activated ie because I will not get any communication from the board, unless I activate some "real" (0-31) non-connected pins for CTS and RTS

Hi Antonio,

Please let me know what is the problem when you change above parameters? How do you test that flow control is still activated? What terminal are you using with CLI?
