escape character CTRL+Y

35
Hi All,
I'm writing a telnet program to automate some chores around our network and I have a switch that requires you press CTRL+Y to bring up the login prompt -

Does anyone know the escaped equiliviant?

Thanks
Daniel

Well you're sending bytes down the stream, just send the one down that corrosponds to the ascii ctrl+Y. Which I think is like 25 or 0x19, should be around there somewhere.

Thanks

I just used a comport program that showed character's hex values, and I was right about the number to use.
