We recommend that you use HyperTerm to connect to the SVMi-8. The HyperTerm settings are listed in the previous
section.
Parallel Port
The parallel port on SVMi-8 is used for UPLOADING (sending) and DOWNLOADING (receiving) files to and from the
SVMi-8. This connector is designed to connect to a Zip Drive. STA recommends the use of a Zip drive, because all
the necessary drivers are pre installed on the SVMi-8 hard drive and the parallel port is already mapped to our back
up and restore utility. Also this arrangement will work independently of PC hardware and operating systems.
For more information on this, see 'Back Up and Restore'.
