To create a new HyperTerminal Connection, choose

To use a HyperTerminal connection that you previously created, simply choose the Icon that
represents the location that you want to connect to. The WinBook FX will dial and connect. A
terminal window will appear that allows you to interact with the location to which you are
connected.
COMMUNICATING WITH BULLETIN BOARDS
You can use your WinBook FX to communicate with on-line information centers known as
bulletin boards. Bulletin boards offer services such as e-mail, chat, and information. Some
Bulletin Board Services (BBS) allow you to download documents, programs, and other
information.
You can use HyperTerminal to dial, connect, and communicate with Bulletin Board Services.
See "Using HyperTerminal" above for more information.
If you think you may need a software driver that was not included with your WinBook FX when
you received it, contact Technical Support at the number listed on the "Read-Me-First" card.
They may recommend that you download a software driver from a bulletin board. They will give
you details on file names, procedures, etc.
EXCHANGING FILES WITH OTHER COMPUTERS
Your WinBook FX allows you to exchange files with other computers. You can use Briefcase to
do this. See "Updating Files from a Remote Computer" in this chapter for more information.
You can also use HyperTerminal to dial, connect, and communicate with other computers. See
"Using HyperTerminal" in this chapter for more information.[FX 4-17]
