Please ensure that you have correctly configured your terminal emulator settings properly. The default settings can be found here.

Edit: Also if you are attempting to use this on a device without a native DB-9 (Serial) port, and are using a USB to Serial convertor, then this may also be causing your problems, without further information I cannot help any further.
