The Braille Lite M20-M40 User's Manual - Freedom Scientific

using HyperTerminal, a terminal program that
comes with the Windows Operating System.
To set up your PC for communication with your
notetaker, first use the TNS3 serial cable from
Freedom Scientific to connect your notetaker to
Com Port 1 of your computer. If you are using a
Braille display, you will need to temporarily
disable this in JAWS. To do this, select Braille
from the Options Menu of JAWS, and TAB to the
Default Braille Display list. Select No Display
and press ENTER. You will need to close and
reload JAWS for this to take effect.
On most windows systems, HyperTerminal can
be found on the Start Menu, either under
Programs/Accessories/Communications, or
directly under Programs/Accessories. Once in
the correct menu, you will notice a
HyperTerminal Submenu. There may also be a
separate HyperTerminal item outside of this
submenu. If this separate item exists, select it
and press ENTER. Otherwise, enter the
HyperTerminal Submenu and select
hyperterminal.exe from there.
A dialog will appear allowing you to configure a
new connection. The first control is an edit box,
asking for the name of the connection. You can
enter anything you want here. However, try to
make it unique, as this will become the name of
the item used to connect to the notetaker in the
future. Press TAB, and you land on a list box
