CONNECTING USING TERMINAL EMULATION SOFTWARE

A terminal emulator, such as HyperTerminal from Microsoft®, can be used to interact with the
WAG. HyperTerminal is included with the standard Windows® 9x/NT/2000/XP installation. The
WAG uses ANSI terminal emulation.
To Connect Using HyperTerminal:
1. Connect a null modem cable to the WAG serial port labeled J1 and to the serial COM port of a
PC laptop computer. Make sure the cable is a null cable or use a null modem adapter.
2. Match the PC/laptop COM port settings to the WAG serial port default settings. Use the
following table.
If it is necessary to reset the WAG to the default configuration, remove the WAG
cover and hold down the S3 button mounted on the board before performing the
following step.
3. Apply power to the WAG. When the system is first powered up, the WAG boot monitor runs.
The boot monitor allows for upgrades of executive software and performs some initial
hardware testing. The following information appears on the screen showing the executive file
is valid.
