There are many ways for users to communicate with an EnerMatic Controller ...PCs, laptops, web tablets, GSM modems, or an Ample Power web server. The primary user interface to the EnerMatic is terminal based. In fact a computer terminal common in the 1970s can be used, but today PCs can emulate such a device. On Windows machines HyperTerminal is the most common terminal emulator program. Apple and Linux computers also have terminal emulator programs. Below is a verbatim copy of the screen for the top menu of the Enermatic Controller.
