7 TERM

7.1 Introduction

The TERM tool was developed in order to have a simple terminal emulator that conformed to the Common User Interface. It is intended to be used with Logic Engine designs that require terminal I/O. It does not however, have any direct connection with the Logic Engine. Any other terminal emulator would work equally well if not better.

In order to use the TERM tool, a serial cable must be connected from the 9 pin serial port of the Logic Engine board to the serial port of the PC host. See Section 2.07 for details about this cable and how to install it.
