Serial Connection
To make communication possible between the IGW/920 and the development system a ter-
minal program is needed.
Under Windows it is normally HyperTerminal, for Linux exists Minicom, an equivalent pro-
gram. In the following we use HyperTerminal, but all settings can be made similarly with
other terminal programs. If there is no terminal program installed on your development sys-
tem (this could be the case for a Linux-based PC), you have to install it manually from your
operating systems installation CD-ROM.
First open a new HyperTerminal session and enter a name for it (e.g. IGW/920). Choose now
under „File->Properties“ under „Connect via“ the entry „direct link cable connection via
COM1“ (or the COM-port you used). In the next step click on the button „configure“ to get
to the next dialog box.
