Note that the baud rate when transferring initially is 4800, this is probably the highest speed possible when transfering using the BASIC program, due to the speed of the BASIC interpreter. When using ZM.X, you can probably go higher, I transfer files at 9600 baud when using ZM.X. | Note that the baud rate when transferring initially is 4800, this is probably the highest speed possible when transfering using the BASIC program, due to the speed of the BASIC interpreter.

+ | On X68000 side launch MuTerm and use the following keys: | ||
+ | |||
+ | < | ||
+ | F4 - Send | ||
+ | F5 - Receive | ||
+ | BREAK - Interrupt data transfer | ||
+ | SHIFT+BREAK - Exit to HumanOS | ||
+ | </ | ||
+ | |||
+ | Please note that there is no need to use the SPEED command because MuTerm sets RS232 port speed and parameters automatically. | ||
