another fine option is "cu", which personally i find to be less fuss
than minicom
cu -l ttyXX -s 2400
gtkterm also seems 'just right' to be if you are in X
its handy as it gives a nice drop down of available serial ttys
(usefullish if you have USB serials you are plugging in and out of)

how do I open com1 @ 2400 8N1 in a terminal ?
minicom will do the trick.( Don't run from inside of a screen session with
default key bindings ) You can set up the com port paramters inside of
minicom aswell. I have used it before with some weather sensors
sucessfully.
how do I make minicom go 'online' ?
what wether sensor did you use ?
I've hooked up a temp sensor, and, would like to check it's outputting
data, sensor continualy outputs data every 1 sec
Curious, what sensor(s) do you have ?
