Setting up the Transceiver using HyperTerminal
Note: The terms Modem and Transceiver are used interchangeably in this manual and in the text of the
Setup menu. While the words have different meanings, the two terms should be treated as one
and the same when referring to FreeWave products.
Note: Included on the User Manual CD is the optional “EZConfig” transceiver setup program and
instructions. This program eliminates the need to use HyperTerminal to program the
transceivers. For FGR2-series radios, EZConfig 3.4 or later will need to be used.
Note: The FGR2-series radios may also be programmed via the FreeWave Tools Suite software which
is included on the User Manual CD. This program replaces EZConfig as the configuration
software.
Once the transceiver is powered and connected with the programming cable to the programming
computer, it can be programmed for use through HyperTerminal or EZConfig.
The following describes how to set HyperTerminal to program the transceivers.
