Transmit not working ??

Why is it that I can transmit keystrokes to a Cisco device that I Telnetted to, but I can't transmit ANY keystrokes (letters or numbers) to an Adtran modem controller that I Telnetted to?

Am I missing something obvious?

(Thanks for previous help!!!!!)
 
Is this from within Procomm typing manually or using a script?

It's possible the Adtran device is not echoing your input but is accepting it. To test that theory, type in a command that should produce some sort of output on the screen.

After I Telnet to the device using Procomm I am able to type and see the input displayed on the terminal. When I use a script to transmit the same input, I hear an error bell and nothing gets tranmitted to the screen.

I have stripped the script to its bare essential:
proc main
connectmanual telnet "89.1.16.105"
transmit "1^M"
endproc

I have tried adding waitfor and waitquiet commands but saw no change.

????? argh! The same basic script works great on my Cisco devices!
 
Try adding these lines after the connectmanual command:

while $DIALING
yield
endwhile

This will keep the transmit command from firing until the connection has been established.

It seems so simple, but still not working.

proc main
connectmanual telnet "89.1.16.105"
while $DIALING
yield
endwhile
transmit "1^M"
endproc

I just want to see the 1 get transmitted at this point, but I still hear the error beep.
 
Have you tried manually connecting
then running the script:

proc main
transmit "1^M"
endproc

As a test separating the two functions from each other.

Hope the thought helps, DT
