Windows95 Using Hyperterminal

Setup

• Select "Start->Programs->Accessories->Hyperterminal"

• Double Click on "Hypertrm"

• Enter name eg. "direct1", then "OK"

• Set "Connect using:" to "Direct to Com1", then "OK"
  • Set "Bits per second:" to "9600"
  • Set "Data bits:" to "8"
  • Set "Parity:" to "None"
  • Set "Stop bits:" to "1"
  • Set "Flow control:" to "none"
  • Select "OK"

Now press reset on the Monitor board. If you don't see a banner message from PMON/IMON you might need a special cable.

If you get dropped characters when displaying some commands (eg "r"), you probably need to enable the 16550 buffer. Select File->Properties->Configure->Advanced and make sure that the FIFO buffers are enabled. Note that you must Disconnect and Connect the Call before this change will take effect.

If the command-line editing characters ^A, ^B etc. don't work, change Propeties->Settings to vt100.

Sending Files

To send a text file to the target, perform the following steps:

• PMON> load

• Hyperterminal
  • Select "Transfer->Send Text File"
  • Use Browser to select directory
  • Set "Files of type:" to "All files"
  • Select the .rec file, then "Open"
