Using Windows Terminal and Windows
Hyperterminal
You can use a PC running terminal emulation software as the manager console,
instead of a terminal. There are many terminal emulation applications
available for the PC, but the most readily available are the Terminal and
HyperTerminal applications included in Microsoft Windows 95, 98, 2000, and
Windows NT 4.0. In standard Windows installations, HyperTerminal is located
in the Start > Programs > Accessories menu.
The key to successful use of terminal emulation software with the router is to
configure the software and router with matching communications parameters.
The following procedures describe how to configure Windows Terminal and
HyperTerminal for the default RS-232 Terminal Port settings on the router, but
the same principles apply to other terminal emulation programs.
To configure Windows HyperTerminal for Windows 95, 98, 2000, & NT 4.0.
1.
In Windows, select:
•
Programs > Accessories > HyperTerminal.
•
Double-click the Hypertrm.exe icon.
2.
In the Connection Description dialog box:
•
Enter a name for the connection (e.g., AR300LS)
•
Select an icon from the scrolling list.
