BSA server could use the SLIP (3-wire) (H5 Link) interface to communicate with the host CPU.

To enable the BSA server to communicate via SLIP interface, please use "-s" option to start the bsa_server:

     ./bsa_server -d /dev/<uart>  -s  -p <hcd_file>

Device firmware will detect the requested connection is H5 or not and adapt to it. There is no need to get a new HCD file for H5 link communication. The path file, HCD file, will be downloaded same as the hardware flow control. Since there are hardware flow control signals, CTS and RTS, are used, the BSA server and the device will complete the communication by sending ACK and NAK.
