  • 1.  [RETURN] value - telnet

    Posted 05-26-2016 00:47
    I'm having some difficulty in sending telnet messages from dashboard to a BMD videohub - the problem being that I can't seem to get dashboard to correctly send a value for [RETURN].
    I'm using rosstalk.sendMessage('192.168.x.x',9990,'VIDEO OUTPUT ROUTING:n7 8n');

    n= what I understand to be the [RETURN] value.

    Is this correct? Or do I have to initiate the telnet session from dashboard prior to sending the message?

    Thanks

    I'm not familiar with the BMD VideoHub but here's what I can tell you when sending messages in ogScript:
    \n is a linefeed.
    \r is a carriage return.

    So, if you need to send a RETURN,
    rosstalk.sendMessage('192.168.x.x',9990,'VIDEO OUTPUT ROUTING:\r7 8\r');

    Should work

    It would be \n in both cases.
