Sorry to bother you,

Hyperterminal comes standard with Windows and can be found at:
Start -> Programs -> Accessories -> Communications

It can use the serial port on your PC and change the port settings. Typically, Hyperterminal is used as a substitute for the IFI_Loader terminal window for displaying debug output from the RC. It has several advantages, not the least of which is the capability to save debug output. There are some more notes here:

You can't usually have more than one program running that uses the same serial port, so you can't run the IFI_Loader terminal window while either the Hyperterminal or the CMU programs are running.
