• If HyperTerminal has never been run in association with the monitor, then a new
HyperTerminal connection needs to be made as follows:
a) Click Start; click Run. In the Run box, type "hypertrm.exe" and click OK. The New
Connection dialog box should appear.
b) Type in a New Connection Name. Click OK to select the default icon (if desired, select a
different icon before clicking OK). The "Connect To" dialog box should appear.
c) Click on Connect from the drop-down menu and choose the COM port to which the
analyzer is connected. Then click OK to display the COM Properties dialog box for that
COM port.

- Bits per second: ........ 19200

- Parity: ........................ None
- Stop bits: .......................... 1

Then click OK to display HyperTerminal's main window.

the default drive\directory\filename to which all received data will be stored as an ASCII text file.

Browse to select a different drive, directory and filename. The next time data is
captured, it will be stored under the same location and filename.
NOTE: Changing the filename extension to "CSV" (comma separated variable) will
allow the file to be directly opened in the spreadsheet program. For example, double
clicking the filename CAPTURE.CSV in Windows Explorer will automatically start
Microsoft Excel and load the file.
