Here are some instructions that I once posted on this board:

------------------------------------------
I'll assume you have Win98. Then you can use
HyperTerminal, which should already be on your system.

Do this:

Start : Programs : Accessories : Communications :Hyperterminal

This should bring up a window with some icons in it.
Start up the one called "Hypertrm".
You will get a splash-screen, which says HyperTerminal
by Hilgraeve. It goes away in 5 seconds.

Then you get another window called "New connection".
Type in a name, such as TEST, and click OK.
Now you get another window called "Connect To".
Down at the bottom, it says "Connect using".
Pick a Com port that you know is available, and unused
on your system. For me, that happens to be Com2.

Then you'll get another window called "Com2 Properties".
Pick the baud rate you're going to use. For me,
that's 4800 baud. For "Flow control", pick "None".
Everything else should be already set. (8 bits, No parity,
1 stop bit). Then click OK.

It should start working now -- provided that you
picked a free Com port, and have it wired up correctly,
you should be able to see messages sent by your PIC.

When you shut HyperTerm down, it will ask you
if you want to save "TEST". Do so. Then it will
save your configuration settings. Next time you
open up the HyperTerm folder, you'll see an icon
called "TEST". Just click on it and you'll be
back up, with all your desired settings.

It should be in your start menu under accessories->communications.
if not here is link <a href="http://www.hilgraeve.com/htpe/" TARGET="_blank">http://www.hilgraeve.com/htpe/</a>

you can set up for direct connect to comm ports and then set up baud rate etc. You have to save the session or you have to set it up every time.

Hyperterminal is shipped with every windoze system that I own or have owned.

It is usually listed under Start->Programs->Accessories

You can also usually find the program on your hard drive by searching for "hypertrm.exe"

If you mean Hyperterminal,

this is a MS product just look in your program menu.

If you start with communication pay attention to the handshake state. If tree wire communication is needed yust config Hyperterminal for no handshake.

Hyperterminal is a standard part of the Windows systems. You can install it using Control Panel-Add Programs-Windows Setup.
But lot of people don't suggest it to use as HW terminal tool and I think they are right.
Hyperterminal is a free and WYSIGPF (What You See Is General Protection Fault) program .

HyperTerminal is a communications package that comes with Windows (Win98 & later). I DO NOT recommend it for use with microcontrollers as it has lots of odd quirks that will drive you nuts. The OS/2 version was much better. I use Mirror which is a Procomm clone. I have also heard that there is a good serial comms program from CCS but I have not used it.

Hi Alex,

This program is supplied on the Windows installation CD.
Look for it under Start -> Settings ->
Add/Remove Programs -> Windows Setup -> Communications
-> Details
and check the Hyperterminal checkbox.

After installation, find the Hyperterminal program in
Start -> Programs -> Accessories -> Communications
-> Hyperterminal Folder -> Hyperterminal

Double click on the Hypertrm.exe icon to start the program.
From here onwards, it's easy. Set the correct baud rate,
comm port etc ...

Hope this helps.

Zak
