the Windows terminal program. Make sure that the serial settings in Hyper
Terminal match the settings configured on the cFP-1808. For more information

When the CONSOLE OUT switch is in the ON position, the cFP-1808 does not
use the serial communication protocol and you cannot communicate with
FieldPoint I/O over the serial port.
