Appendix B: Accessing the camera via HyperTerminal

NOTE: This section is for advanced users only.

HyperTerminal is a basic program for Windows 9x/NT/2000XP/Vista. A PC can communicate with external devices through the serial port by using this program. The steps you should take to set the HyperTerminal are as follows with a Windows 2000 OS. The camera can be programmed via HyperTerminal, but only a few options are available. Programming the camera via HyperTerminal has no advantage over the installation via IP Installer or the Web browser. However, for diagnostic purposes this access method can be quite useful.

1.Go to Start -> Programs -> Accessories -> Communications ->HyperTerminal. Select one of the icons and then enter an appropriate name in the box.

2. Select a serial port of the PC, then click "OK." (Usually COM1 or COM2 is recommended.)
