You must first configure Hyper Terminal to work with Stage Master Pro. Start the Hyper Terminal program by clicking on "Start" in Windows then "Programs" then "Accessories" then "Hyper Terminal" then "Hypertrm". If for some reasons Hyper Terminal is not installed on your version of Windows, install it from your Windows CD. Go to the control panel, select Add/Remove Programs, select Windows Setup, and then select Communication. Follow the instructions to complete the installation.
Once the Hyper Terminal Program is getting started, you will be asked to choose a name and an icon. Name it Stage Master Pro then pick any icon then click OK. Go to the next dialog box "Connect to" and choose "Direct to COM 2" . Ignore the telephone number and other settings in this box then click OK. In the next dialog box, set bits per second to 38400, data bits to 8, parity to none, stop bits to 1, flow control to none, then click OK. You will access Hyper Terminal desktop. Click File menu in the upper left corner of the desktop, then "Properties", then select the "settings" tab. From the settings tab click "ASCII Setup". In the next dialog box, leave all settings deselect, then OK. Close Hyper Terminal and you will be prompted to save this Hyper Terminal setup. Click YES to save it then you will have a program labeled "Stage Master Pro.ht". You may want to make a shortcut on your desktop if you plan to use your PC with Stage Master Pro often. From this point on, whenever necessary, you can just click Stage Master Pro.ht icon to invoke the Stage Master Pro Hyper Terminal configuration quickly.
Once configured, you can use Hyper Terminal to send the Stage Master Pro data file and save it on your hard disk. Connect to your PC as described hereinbefore. Next call the version of Hyper Terminal that you created for Stage Master Pro. Click on "Transfer" on the top menu bar and select "Capture Text". A dialog box will appear allowing you to select a folder and name for the data file you send. Use a name like "Stage Master Prolib.txt". Be sure to give a new file name that is not available in this folder, because the data sent from Stage Master Pro will not be overwritten the old and instead be added to the existed file. Click "Start" and Hyper Terminal is now ready to receive the files from Stage Master Pro.
