Setting Up Software
There are several third-party software programs that may be needed for configuring or using the
ZyWAN-G9. A serial terminal program can be used to connect to the ZyWAN for administrative
access. This section describes the setup for Windows HyperTerminal and PuTTY. Tera Term
(
http://www.ayera.com/teraterm/ ) is another serial terminal program that may be used, but it is not
discussed here. PuTTY also allows administrative access to the ZyWAN over the network, and
WinSCP may be used in some cases to upload or download files.
Windows HyperTerminal
Windows provides a serial terminal program, HyperTerminal, for serial communications. This can be
used to access the console port of the ZyWAN-G9 for diagnostics. The following steps are the setup
instructions for Windows HyperTerminal. (HyperTerminal is not included with Windows 7.)
1. In the Windows Start menu, select Programs>Accessories>Communications>HyperTerminal. The
Connection Description window is displayed.
2. Enter a name for this HyperTerminal configuration, as shown next.
3. Set the Connect using option to COM1 or whatever free RS-232 port exists on this PC.
