“超级终端”是一个程序，您可以通过调制解调器、零调制解调器电缆或以太网连接，使用该程序连接到其他计算机、Telnet 站点、公告板系统 (BBS)、联机服务和主机。

尽管将“超级终端”与 BBS 一起使用以访问远程计算机上的信息的方法随着万维网的有效性而变得不再常用，但“超级终端”仍然是配置和测试调制解调器，或检查与其他站点连接的有效方法。有关详细信息，请参阅建立新连接 。

“超 级终端”记录从位于连接另一端的计算机或服务传出或传回的消息。因此，在安装和使用调制解调器时它可以充当实用的故障排除工具。要确认调制解调器连接是否 正确或要查看调制解调器的设置，可以通过“超级终端”发送命令，然后检查结果。“超级终端”具有滚动功能，它使用户能够看到已经滚动出屏幕的已接收文本。

通过串行端口而不是通过在网络上设置便携式计算机的过程，可以使用“超级终端”将大文件从别的计算机传输到您的便携式计算机。有关详细信息，请参阅向远程计算机发送文件 。

可以使用“超级终端”来帮助调试远程终端源代码。也可以使用“超级终端”与旧的基于字符的计算机进行通讯。

“超级终端”被设计成一种易于使用的工具，但并不意味着可以代替市场上其他可用的功能强大的工具。可以使用“超级终端”执行上述指定任务，但不可尝试将“超级终端”用于较复杂的通信需求。有关超级终端可支持和不支持项目的详细信息，请参阅列Hilgraeve 网站 上的超级终端常见问题解答列表。

 

HyperTerminal is an application you can use in order to connect your computer to other remote systems. These systems include other computers, bulletin board systems, servers, Telnet sites, and online services. However, you would need a modem, an Ethernet connection, or a null modem cable before you can use HyperTerminal.

Within HyperTerminal’s user interface, you will find menus, buttons, icons, and messages. All these elements and controls work together so as to provide convenience for the user, especially for accessing the necessary features and performing various tasks. This application is a useful tool, particularly for testing if your modem is working well and in verifying if you have a stable connection with other sites.

In order to check if your modem’s settings are configured correctly or if your modem is connected properly, you can send a set of commands through HyperTerminal and view the results given. Other functions of HyperTerminal would include the recording of data being sent to and from the service of the computer you are connected to. Through this information, you will be able to determine the stability of your connections.

In addition, communication with the user of the computer on the other side of the remote connection is made possible through the scroll feature of HyperTerminal. This is a feature that allows you to receive and view texts on the screen as well as the capability to send your own text messages. Another notable feature of HyperTerminal is its option that enables you to transfer files from your desktop PC onto a portable device such as a laptop computer via a serial port.

Furthermore, you will be able to start using the functions provided by HyperTerminal once a new connection has been configured. To do this, you need to initially open the Hyperterminal and enter the information about your location. You will indicate this on the Location Information dialog box. Next, you need to click on the New Connection item found on the File menu. Then, enter the appropriate name of the connection inside the name box and select the suitable icon for it. After doing so, click OK. Choose the modem you want to utilize inside the Connect to dialog box afterwards.

If you’re using a modem, enter the phone number you wish to call. Thus, if you are going to connect using TCP/IP, you can then enter the host address and port number. Finally, once you click on the Dial button, you can just wait until the computer answers your call.
