2 Getting started

Please ensure that the XT55 module connects properly to the application platform. In order to prevent mechanical damage, be careful not to force, bend or twist the module.

2.1 Terminal emulator setup

The example below is based on the Windows HyperTerminal application (terminal emulator program), but XT55 can also be configured using other terminal programs. The XT55 is used with a PC running Windows 2000.

At the first power-up you can use the terminal software, which establishes the communication with a modem via a RS-232 serial port. The following example uses the Hyper Terminal program in Windows 2000.

On Windows 2000, start the Hyper Terminal program. Assign the name for a new session on the displayed window (e.g. XT55).
