hello my name is BETO

I would like to know if SOMEONE is familiar with the hyper terminal program located in the windows start- programs-accesories-communications-hyper terminal

because I want to be able to send a signal from my computer to the rs232 port for example a letter a or b or c to a microcontrller

the idea is to send the ascii code from the computer to the microcontroller pic16f877a and then the pic is going to reconginse it and then its going to drive some motors

and I heard that this is the easiest way to do it, with the hyper terminal program so please if someone knows how to do this or knows how to send a signal from the computer via rs232 please tell me

thanks
HyperTerminal is built for dialing into other computers (often for checking email, or chat. This is very outdated and now uncommon technology)
One thing that we NEED to know is: What type of communication technology are you using? COM Port? LTP? Modem? And what cable type are you using?

If there is any SOFTWARE that came with this Microcontroller, it would most LIKELY be better to use the software that came with it. what kind of cable/conectors do you use if both computers do not have serial portys conectors Not sure why you would reply since he hasn't been back in 3/1/2 Years.....
