the serial port connective problem in using OTA functionality?

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: Z-STACK, CC2530

hi

I want to implement the wirelessly updata firmware  for the devices in my network.so i read the document of Z-Stack OTA upgrade user's guide.pdf released by ti to get information how to implement this function.I find that the implemention of the OTA functionality,it need a dongle,which is used as medium devices between the personal computer and my zigbee devices.And the dongle communicates with PC via a serail port.

The offical circuit diagram showns that CC2530 need  4 pins such as RX,TX.RTS,CTS which used for flow control with computer.my question is that the flow control funtoin of the seral port is requisite? If i prohibit this function,can the OTA Console implement the wirelessly updata functionality?

thank you
