The problem here is, the appliance schematics are already designed in
such way that pins which can be configured as "native" RTS are not
used for RS485 control - the ones that are though may only be used as
GPIO flipped by software on transmission start/end for that purpose.
We simply cannot change the schematics on production because of this
issue alone.
