#176309 - "No other way??"
Responding to: ???'s previous message
I agree that using the timer interrupt is the preferred way to generate the extra bit timing. To say that there is "no other way" is a bit extreme because of course there are other ways to generate this delay too. Several of the schemes used include:

- Inline software delay loops
- Using echo back of transmit bytes back into the receiver side of the UART
- External oneshot that triggers a port pin for polling
- External oneshot that triggers an external interrupt pin
- Using an external RS485 adapter that has built in auto-line-turn-around built-in
- An inexperienced implementer gives up on RS485 and opts for RS422 instead
