ZOOM AM3517
eXperimenter Kit
QuickStart Guide
2.4 Terminal Emulation Installation
The Zoom AM3517 eXperimenter Kit is designed to communicate with terminal emulation
programs using the included null-modem serial cable. The terminal emulation program must
support binary transfers in order to download software to the kit. Although Logic does not
support any particular terminal emulation program, we suggest using Tera Term Pro for
Windows 2000 or XP (Tera Term Pro is not available for Linux users). Tera Term Pro can be
downloaded for free from Logic’s website. To install Tera Term:
Once the terminal emulation program has been installed on your PC, click on ‘Setup’ and
select ‘Serial port...’ to open a new serial port connection using the COM port where the null-
modem serial cable is connected to the host PC. Set the ‘baud-rate’ to 115200, ‘data’ to 8-
bit, ‘parity’ to none, ‘stop’ to 1-bit, and ‘flow control’ to none. (Hint: In Tera Term, you can
save these serial port settings by selecting ‘Setup -> Save setup...’ from the file menu. After
saving, these serial port settings will be in place every time you launch the Tera Term
application.)
