Capturing and Transmitting Results
1. Prepare HyperTerminal to capture results by loading a saved session file or by creating a
new session file as described in Section 11.7.
2. Click Transfer > Capture Text on the menu.
Select a path and file name and click Start.
Any results transmitted to the computer from this
point forward will be captured in the designated
text file.
3. Transmit results to the computer
following the instructions in
Section 5 and Section 6.
The results will appear in the
HyperTerminal window, as
shown in this example. In addi-
tion, the results can be manually
copied and pasted into other
applications by highlighting the
results and using the Edit menu.
Note: If the results do not appear in the HyperTerminal window, an incorrect port
may have been selected in setup (Section 11.7). Repeat the setup and select
a different port.
4. After the results are transmitted, select Transfer > Capture Text > Stop in the menu. The
captured text file can be used by most word processing, spreadsheet, and database applica-
tions.
5. Close HyperTerminal by selecting File > Exit in the menu.
