PC can't get Data from APC 220

Hi
Last week I bought a APC 220 and have tested a few days. I find a problem which is when I use Arduino platform to monitor the serial input from my arduino board, I get the data correct data through APC 220. However, when I change and use HyperTerminal to monitor the serial input, I get nothing. I don't know what is the problem, and hope you can help me, because I will use that apc220 part in my project.
Thanks

Did you try to use PuTTy instead? It is a free downlaod, you can find it on google. It has more options for config.

2012-04-10 08:39:57 Hi I think i have solved the problem. I write a java program to monitor the data. when i set false on DTR and RTS(flow control). That works well. but in hyperterminal, we can't set two byte. that's why i can't receive the data.

Do you mean when you use USB you can monitor the serial data, but once you go to APC you don't see anything?
You should make sure the APC is configured correctly, make sure you have the same baud rates for everything. Default for APC is 9600.
Also, try using PuttY instead of Hyperterm...
