HyperTerminal

By: Roberto Bell

HyperTerminal is communications software used to connect to other computers over modems, RS-232 serial connections, or telnet. In order to use HyperTerminal, the user will have to know details about the computer they wish to connect to, such as the number to dial or the IP address.

HyperTerminal can be accessed by:

* Clicking Start on the desktop
* Going to All Programs
* Clicking Accessories
* Then Communications
* Next clicking HyperTerminal to start the program

For first time users, a window will open asking you to insert "Location Information". This will include information such as your country, area code, the way you would like to connect (modem/TCP) or if your phone uses tone or pulse dialing. Then click OK.

A "New Connection" window opens up, allowing you to choose a name and an icon for your HyperTerminal session. After this information has been filled out, use the "telephone" icons on the HyperTerminal toolbar to connect or disconnect a call to another computer.

Other than connecting to other computers, HyperTerminal can be used to monitor the status of your modem. The details of any connection made using HyperTerminal are recorded in a log file. Reviewing this file can be one way to troubleshoot modem issues.

  • CAR STEREO SPEAKERS By: Professor Apex - Speakers Overview: The car audio you use will have the final say in how your system will sound. There are many different types of speakers available. A single speaker can be used to reproduce the full range of sounds but it is not ideal. If the speaker is too large it will have problems reproducing high frequencies which require rapid movement of the speaker. If it is too modest it will have problems reproducing low frequencies which require large amounts of air to be moved.

  • CAR SUBWOOFERS By: Professor Apex - Subwoofer Definition: A loudspeaker created to reproduce bass frequencies. Subwoofer Selection Tips When deciding to upgrade your audio system, adding a subwoofer can produce massive results. Adding volume at sub frequencies is like adding a third dimension to your music. Whether you’re considering building a new audio system, or just adding one (or more) subwoofers to your factory system, this addition will give you the single, largest sonic improvement. Simply adding even a little bass will make a HUGE improvement. I’ll never forget my first experience listening to the heart-pumping sound of bass.

  • CAR AUDIO ACCESSORIES By: Professor Apex - Installation Accessories There are multitude of accessories that are available for your car stereo. Some of them are madatory such as RCA cables and others are optional like wiring harnesses. RCA Cables: RCA cables are needed to transfer pre-amp (line level) signals. Usually, you use this type of cable for unamplified signals such as the connection between your head unit and amp or crossovers/eqs. Its important to find the right thickness and shielding. The end connectors should be sturdy to prevent breakage from stress.

  • CAR STEREO SIGNAL PROCESSING By: Professor Apex - Equalizers/Crossovers Basics Equalizers enable you to fine tune your system. It is difficult to get speakers to reproduce sound flawlessly. Multiple speaker system things are even more complex. With an equalizer you can boost or cut certain frequency ranges to tailor the overall sound to whatever you desire. An electronic crossover takes a full range signal and divides it into different frequency ranges. Usually crossovers come in 2-way or 3-way. You can get a single system with both an equalizer and a crossover. Electronic or active crossovers act on pre-amp level signals.

  • CAR STEREO WOOFER BOXES By: Professor Apex - Enclosures for Car Audio Woofers: Because woofers move a lot of air they generate a back wave behind them. Mounting a woofer in a open space without an enclosure will cause a loss of bass as the back wave cancels the sound from the front of the woofer. There are many varieties of types of enclosures for woofers to handle this backwave. A common one is a ported box. This enclosure has the woofer mounted in box with a hole in it and a port (tube) attached to the hole.

  • Amplifiers By: Professor Apex - Amplifier Overview Your amplifier takes the signal from your head unit and makes it big enough to be able to drive your speakers. It is good to use separate amps for high and low frequencies but it is not needed. The problem with using one amp for all frequencies is that you cannot adjust the levels among different frequency ranges as easily as you can adjust outputs of separate amps. Most people start their system with an amplifier for the low frequencies (bass) and use their head units built-in power to drive the higher frequency speakers.

  • Finding the Address of a Person Using a Reverse Address Directory By: Jenny Clark - If you wish to find someone you have not been in touch with for a long time, you will be able to find that person by locating their address. While a telephone number and email are not considered permanent, an address is usually something that remains the same for a long time. For people who are in the possession of an address, it becomes easy to find other details about the person. However, finding an address of a person involves performing reverse address directory search.
