'''Data Terminal Ready''', abbreviated as '''DTR''', is a signal present inside an [[RS-232]] serial communications cable that goes between a computer and another device, such as a modem. This is a one-way "high-low" signal going from the computer to the modem (or, in RS-232 terminology, "from DTE to DCE").
