You should now be ready to operate HyperTerminal.

Connect the Communication cable from your Computer to
the ASC input connector in the CW-HMX Master panel.
Power up the CW-HMX System.
You should see the Master panel DCC serial number and
the C-Prompt on your screen.
If not, type SR and hit enter to perform a SYSTEM RESET.
This should establish the communication between the
