It is recommended to use
putty.exe
for communicating with MTS200 through front serial console port or
SSH or Telnet medium from windows based PC or Server. Putty.exe can be downloaded from
website. It is free and reliable software.
In windows based PC, hyperterminal can also be used but user may encounter problems of limited
hyperterminal screen size when list of any mode is larger than provided screen size. This problem will not
be faced through putty software.
