2.0 Configuring Terminal Management
When using the RS-232 Serial Port for VT-100 sessions, Canoga Perkins suggests that you use
HyperTerminal or another type of terminal emulation software when using a PC.
NOTE: Microsoft Vista OS does not include HyperTerminal. If your PC uses the
Windows Vista operating system, you will need to install a terminal
emulation program.
To set up HyperTerminal on your PC.
NOTE: For details on using MS Windows, refer to your MS Windows documentation.
1. Select Start>All Programs>Accessories>Communications>HyperTerminal.
2. At the Connection Description dialog, select an icon and enter the name for the connection. Click
OK.

a. Bits per second: 9600 bps

6. Click OK.
