HyperTerminal
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
HyperTerminal is a communications program bundled with multiple versions of the Microsoft Windows operating system. It is a tool used when connecting to other computers, bulletin board systems (BBSs), and a host of other Internet-related services.
HyperTerminal is designed to emulate various types of text terminal. It can be configured to make a connection through a modem or directly over a serial port. Various serial parameters are configurable such as:
- Baud rate
- Parity (odd, even, none)
- Stop bits
- Flow control
HyperTerminal supports various terminal protocols such as VT100 (ANSI X3.64), as well as various forms of file transfer protocols such as ASCII, XMODEM and YMODEM.
Windows Vista does not include HyperTerminal.
