The idea is that the hardware already controls the option receiving during sending before it gets to the signal receiving hardware. The standard RS485 is a half-duplex bus that in most cases is driven by an UART controller. The advantage of using this GPIO is that it is independent of the capabilities of the UART core and the UART driver. On the hardware side the interface to the bus is controlled by a transceiver, that has a pin called RE (RX Enable) or similar, which connects the bus to the RX signal of the UART controller. The GPIO can switch between two states to control the RE pin via an electrical circuit: - Active: The RE pin is always active. The UART RX see everything on the bus and therefore also what happens with the TX signal on the bus. - Inactive: The RE pin is always active, but during sending on the bus the pin RE is inactive. So basically the receiving during sending is suppressed. A possible circuit diagram could look like this: ┌──────────────────┐ │ RS485 │ TX ───────────────┤D │ │ Transceiver │ RTS ────┬──────────┤DE │ │ │ │ │ ┌─────┐ │ │ └─┤& │ │ │ │ ├──┤!RE │ !rx_during_tx_gpio ──────┤ │ │ │ └─────┘ │ │ │ │ RX ───────────────┤R │ │ │ └──────────────────┘ Here the RTS pin of the UART core is used to control TX via the transceiver pin DE (Drive Enable). RE and rx_during_tx_gpio are active low.
