What device are you trying to connect to the COM port?

When you use Hyper Terminal, remember to set the correct paramters: Bits per second, Data bits, etc. Safest to set it on Default.

If you still don't get output on hyperterminal, try using this:

to test your com port.

If you could check your device on a different COM port, or different PC it would be great.

Also remember to check Device Manager for !, ? or Xs
