: If you are running windowz on your PC, use Hyperterm with the emulation

Transferring files over serial connections requires cooperating partners
on each end, executing the same file transfer protocol. Usually it's
hard to find both ends from the same maker, so when things don't work
as you hoped, you get finger-pointing instead of real help. You won't
have this problem if you use Kermit software from Columbia University:
http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/
The Kermit software for Windows 95/98/ME/NT/2000 is Kermit 95:
http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/k95.html
and for AIX, it's C-Kermit:

Kermit 95 emulates any kind of terminal you need on AIX including AIXTERM,
IBM HFT, and IBM 3151, as well as all the more common VTxxx's, Wyse, ANSI,
etc.
