STerm
The serial connection
Before you can use Sterm you have to connect a terminal (VT100 for example) to a
COM port of your Windows computer. Make sure you have a correct working serial cable.
Set the options at the terminal bios correct (line speed, number of characters).
To establish a serial connection select the 'Serial link' tabsheet and configure
the serial link correctly for your terminal.

If the configuration is done click
the 'Connect serial' button or press the serial speedbutton.
If the serial connection is set up you'll see a log message in the logscreen and a
telnet prompt (STERM >>) at the screen of the terminal. Now you are able to use
the services offered by Sterm, telnet for example. To end the serial connection
click the ' disconnect serial' button or the serial speedbutton, if an internet
service is running, it will be terminated.
