The majority of our clients use the HyperTerminal software. If you are familiar with the original version of HyperTerminal that was licensed by Microsoft to include with Windows, the current version of HyperTerminal Private Edition has all these features and more.
If you need the most commonly used terminal emulators, communication options, or file transfer protocols you can use either HyperTerminal or HyperACCESS.
If you need a customizable program with advanced features like scripting or automation or if you use less common terminal emulators you will need HyperACCESS.
