Yesterday I used Hyperterminal to communicate both ways with a 16F877.
To be honest it was sheer luck because I had no clear idea how to set it in my Win ME machine.
I was confused not only for the so many type of terminals it can emulate but also for the so many protocols Kermit, etc etc.
I googled but information is overwhelming. :shock:
Any simple advice on minimal settings to send and receive ASCII and eventually binary?.
:idea:
Additional, stupid question: having three COM ports in my PC (1, 2 and 4), the last with the phone modem, how I know beforehand if 1 or 2 will output through the 9 pins connector? Is any way other than testing to know that?
Help REALLY appreciated.
