Hyperterminal Serial Communication with Microcontroller

Hi All;
I need to use the Hyperterminal to receive data serially from a microcontroller.
My problem is with the hyperterminal. I dont know the difference between the following 2 options:
1. Receive File
2. Capture Text
- Which one is easier to use?
- If I used the "Receive File" option, do I have to manually implement the "XModem" protocol on the microcontroller?

I just want the simplest communication...

Please advise ASAP....
Thank u very much for your help....

  • "1. Receive File"

    This option uses transfer protocols like XModem, which would require you to implement peer protocol software on the sending end.

    "2. Capture Text"

    This option simply writes the received bytes to a file, so I suppose it could be classified as easier.
