How do I send commands to the AVR clock using Brays Terminal?
Brays Terminal does not send each character typed immediately, as HyperTerminal does. You must select the white send line near the bottom of the window (transmit section) with the mouse and type the characters to send there. Do not add any CR or LF characters. Use the send button to transmit the characters, one at a time or all at once, whatever you prefer. The AVR Clock can buffer up to 128 characters at a time. For example to change the clock to 2PM, you can type XT140000 in the send line and then hit the ->send button. Brays Terminal also allows you to assign macros containing multiple characters. If you use those, you can send multiple commands in rapid succession. Youll see that the AVR clock is incredibly responsive without affecting the display.
