    Hey zeineb,

    Serial connections are used for communication between your computer and another device (PC, MCU, etc.), they are not purposed for communication between two terminal programs on the same device. COM ports are created when a device like a MSP430 LaunchPad are connected to the computer, and then you can use either the CCS or Hterm terminals to communicate with the connected hardware. This question belongs on another forum if you want to create a virtual COM port on your computer for both terminals to connect to without physically using a MSP430.

    Regards,
