HyperTerminal Configuration

A communications program such as HyperTerminal can be used on Windows XP systems
to view messages from the F6482 Series Development Board. The following procedure
examines how to configure HyperTerminal for the Z8F6482 demonstration project.

The HyperTerminal application is not available in Windows Vista and Windows 7 systems. If
you are using either of these operating systems, consider using/installing different communica-
tion software such as Tera Term; see

Appendix C. Tera Term Configuration

on page 39.

1. Connect the RS-232 to 6-pin circuit adapter to J20 on the Development Board. Con-

nect a 9-pin serial cable or USB-to-serial cable to the RS-232-to-6-pin adapter, then
connect the other end to your PC.

2. In HyperTerminal, choose

File Properties

then, if your PC has a serial interface,

select the COM port assigned to your serial port. If you do not have a serial port on
your PC, use a USB-to-serial adapter (not included in the kit).
