III — COMMUNICATION INTERFACE

To use a simple communications interface such as Hyper
Terminal, you need to know which communications port
(COM:XX) on your computer is being used by the USB
connection.

1. To determine this, click START, then click on CONTROL

PANEL and then select SYSTEM from the list in the
Control Panel screen.

2. Select the Hardware tab.

3. Then click on Device Manager. This displays a list of

hardware in your system.

4. Expand the Ports (COM & LPT) listing by clicking on the

+ symbol.

5. As you observe this list, unplug the USB Connector

from your computer and observe which of the COM
ports is removed from the list (it should reappear if you
plug the USB Connector back into the computer). Note
this COM port number for future reference.

6. Exit these programs with the USB cable plugged into

your computer.

7. Launch Hyper Terminal by clicking on START, followed

by All Programs, Accessories, Communications and
finally HyperTerminal.
