in reply to Expect.pm CTRL Characters not being recognised by remote device

In the manual sequence, you show 'P', 'd' & 't'. Although you indicate that you continue to hold the control key down, as there is no such thing as a lower case control character, it seems likely that the device sees '^P' followed by 'd' & 't'.

Try sending "^Pdt" (in the appropriate way), and see what happens?

    That was actually my initial attempt ^cpdt - which was sent as ^Pdt - this also didnt work. I believe the device needs ^P^D^T since this is what works manually and also via Aspect.
