Visit Preferences to set your user name Summary of change: A useful terminal program should be able to display hexadecimal and connect to any specified rs232 port: * gtkterm on linux is nice and popular * http://bray.velenje.cx/avr/terminal (bray terminal) is a very good on win32. Try to download [http://www.vems.hu/files/TuningSoftware/TerminalProgram/BrayTerm20030217.zip brayterminal from here] if the original page has problems (you can also google around) * minimalistic [http://www.comp.lancs.ac.uk/~albrecht/sw/terminal/ serialterm] for win32 * standard windows hyperterm is very lame, we avoid it * [http://www.compt.ru/ COM port toolkit] is a very powerful terminalprogram ** (eg. macro feature, and timestamping and time-based splitting of lines useful for RS485 RTU protocol). Maybe for simple ping ("let's see if this cable works") brayterm is more intuitive. * Megaloader http://www.vems.hu/files/DavidHelland/megaloader.zip from MembersPage/DavidHelland for win, linux (src + binary) is text-only terminal emulator with up-load and down-load capability for MSAVR. Also programs HEX files into AVR Flash. Note that there are other ways to configure MS-AVR, eg. from a directly connected GenBoard/KeyBoard, see GenBoard/MenuSystem. Although they cannot reach all variables of MS-AVR, the GUI applications are very nice for tuning the 2D maps: * MegaTune * MegaTunix Optional: Add document to category: Wiki formatting: * is Bullet list ** Bullet list subentry ...
