Transmit "Page Down" 1

[VLG711]

I'm trying to write a script that will send a page down to the terminal. In both the editor and the terminal I am using the PCPlus 437 font. When I look at the keyboard editor, the page down is using the cent sign, 6 and a tilde. when I put this into a script and run it only writes the 6 to the screen. If I open the monitor window and press page down I see 9B 36 7E sent. When I run my script I see 9B 36 sent to the terminal. What am I doing wrong?

The script looks like this....

proc main

transmit "XX6~"

endproc

Substitute a cent sign for the XX.


Any help is greatly appreciated.

This is due to Procomm using a tilde as a pause character in transmitted strings. The easiest way to workaround this problem is to add the RAW keyword at the end of your transmit command, such as:

transmit "XX6~" RAW
