Caution:
Some versions of Hyperterminal have a bug which does not allow the properties to be
changed unless the disconnect command is selected under the Call menu before changing the
properties. The affected programs will always show the property changes in the status bar but the
changes are not actually implemented unless the program is disconnected prior to the property
changes being made. Select the Connect command after the changes are made.
