[GreenKeys] USB-teletype adapters

Duncn!    glad  you are having  fun!
buy a  extra  one in case it  does  as  we   do not know if  more  will be  
made and it is such a useful  board. ( and it helps  keep eric  motivated 
to MFR  idf   we  keep buying <grin!>
 
OK =- the hyperterm on  your  win xp or earlier?     will work on win  7 
and  10
there are  2  files u  need plus a help  file ( which I  did not bother 
with)     
On  the Windows 7 box make a new folder under C:\Program 
Files\HyperTerminal for  32-bit and for 64-bit make a new folder C:\Program Files  
(x86)\HyperTerminal
>From  a Windows XP box and copy the following 3 files to the folder that 
are on the  Windows 7 box:
C:\Program  Files\Windows NT\hypertrm.exe
C:\WINODWS\system32\hypertrm.dll
C:\WINODWS\Help\hypertrm.chm
Now  just run hypertrm.exe and HyperTerminal is on Windows 7.
If  you want to have HyperTerminal on your Start Menu just create a 
shortcut to  hypertrm.exe and put it inC:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start 
Menu\Programs  and when you go to All Programs under the Start Menu HyperTerminal 
will be  there.

The  only issue that I  and other out on the net I got this info   from  is 
that when creating a connection the icons do not show, but  EH!  a non 
issue.
 
 
 
someone   else recommend  a split  screen term  program and  what was  that 
title again?  I  could like to try it  also

Eric,

THANKS for designing USBTTY and making it available to  us!!

Got the board fired up, but have some questions:
In the Config  Settings - in "AUTOMSG" - how do you enter "EOF" from to 
computer keyboard  to exit from the text entry??  I assumed it would be a 
"CTL-" or  "ALT-" sequence, but I think I tried everything and nothing 
seemed to  work. (I want to use the "Autoprint" feature for demos at the 
Antique  Wireless Museum.)

What are people using for a terminal program?  I  was surprised to find 
that Hypertem is no longer included in MS OS since  MS Vista (I'm using 
W7 and assuming W10 won't include it either).  I  downloaded "ExtraPuTTY" 
and it worked, but it was hard to find the "Serial  Data" mode and I 
couldn't figure out how to save my settings/config.   I have read that 
the Win XP exe & dll files for Hyperterm will still  work on W7, so I 
will try that next.

In looking for a small plastic  box to put the board into, my wife 
suggested Jo-ann's Fabric & Craft  store. We went there and she got $2.50 
worth of pins and I got a "free"  ~2" square sturdy plastic box!

Thanks & have  fun,

Duncan
