The normal mode is VT Terminal. All text from the device is sent to
the terminal and keystrokes made in the terminal window are sent to the device.
Macros and command line text is also sent directly to the device. The command
line box has a command scroll back buffer which make sending repetitive commands
easy.
Many system messages are also sent to the terminal window.
External VT helper assumes the an external terminal program such as TeraTerm is connected to the data port. All data is transferred between the attached device and the terminal program. Additionally, you can send macros and other commands etc from the Control centre without interrupting the terminal session.
Monitor / Hex monitor also assume a connected external terminal. MMCC
will monitor and display text going between the terminal program and the
attached device in ASCII or HEX.
This is very helpful when debugging VT control codes etc.
File manager opens a new window for viewing and transferring files
between the PC and device.
See File Manager for more information.
