4.3 Remote operation with a PC
The FMBM can also be operated through its back-panel USB interface. This requires using a
PC with a USB Port and a communications program such as HyperTerminal that is supplied
with the Windows XP OS. Other equivalent terminal-type programs like TeraTerm freeware
can also be used. This mode of operation is known as the VT-100 mode.
You must also have previously installed the FMBM’s USB driver so that your PC can
communicate with the FMBM. This driver is included in the software package found on the
CD supplied with the FMBM (see section 3.2).
The communications parameters that must be set in your communications program
(HyperTerminal or equivalent) are: 115200 baud, No parity, 8 bits, 1 stop bit, no flow control
and the appropriate COM port. Once communications is established, enter “M” for Main
menu and the following screen will appear.
