AA.4.1

Telnet Operation via HyperTerminal

There is a disadvantage when using Windows Command-line as a Telnet client. Since Command-

line cannot translate a ‘\r’ (i.e., carriage return or “CR”) to a ‘\r\n’ (i.e., CR+line feed “LF”) for the

messages coming from Telnet Server, any multi-line Target-to-Controller response (e.g., the

response to the FRW? query) will be displayed as one line, with the latter lines overwriting the

previous lines.
In order to view the full response messages, Comtech EF Data recommends use of the

HyperTerminal terminal emulation program, configured as a Telnet client.
Configure HyperTerminal as follows:
Ensure that the connection is made

using TCP/IP (Winsock) instead of

COM1 or COM2, as shown at the near

right.
ASCII Setup (File  Properties 

Settings  ASCII Setup): Check the

"Send line ends with line feeds"

option in the ASCII Sending section,

and the "Append line feeds to

incoming line ends" option in the

ASCII Receiving section, as shown at

the far right.
