Question: How do I set serial special characters?
Answer: You can add an extenstion to the serialPort in c# :

for the other fields you can change :


  dcbType.GetField("XonChar"); // "XonChar", "XoffChar", "ErrorChar", "EofChar", "EvtChar"

            using System;

                    using (var port = new SerialPort("COM1"))
                    {
                        port.Open();
                        port.SetXonXoffChars(0x12, 0x14);
                    }
                }
            }

            internal static class SerialPortExtensions
