If you require a RS-232 connection, any terminal emulation software, Hyperterminal, Putty, Realterm, etc, would suffice.
I prefer Putty, which is available for free download:
PuTTY Download Page
However, ensure there is a proper RS-232 transceiver, like MAX232 or appropriate version for the dsPIC operating voltage, is utilized and do not directly connect the USART lines to the PCs serial port.
Otherwise the dsPIC maybe severely damaged.
