Before we learn to use HyperTerminal, we have to know what a super terminal does, super Terminal is a universal serial interactive software, many embedded applications of the system with the corresponding program, through these programs, can through the super terminal and embedded system interaction, so that HyperTerminal become embedded system "monitor".
The principle of HyperTerminal is to send user input at any time to the serial port (TCP protocol is sent to the network port, here only to say the case of the serial port), but does not show input. It shows the characters received from the serial port. Therefore, the embedded system of the corresponding program should complete the task is:
1, the launch of their own information, process information to the initiative to run a super terminal host;
2, will receive the character return to the host, simultaneously sends needs to display the character (like the command response and so on) to the host;
3, in the development of single-chip microcomputer use.
Simple Operation Method:
Below is the configuration of HyperTerminal, baud rate of 115200, data flow control, the other we choose the default can be, and then connect the ARM11 ok6410 Development Board test, found that the information is displayed.
Of course this is one of the most basic development test tutorials. To get a better understanding of the HyperTerminal under WinXP, it also requires a lot of effort to learn more deeply. Interested friends may wish to find more relevant tutorial research in this network.
