Hi.
I am trying to create a macro that will send a specific line, and then wait for specific data that happens to be on 2 separate lines.

When I log in, it responds with the 2 lines below.

TAG COMPLD
;

I want it to wait to send the next line until after it sees both the "TAG COMPLD" and then the ";" right below it.

I tried this, but it did not work.



It will send the next command after it see the TAG COMPLD.

Can anyone point me in the right direction please?

Try putting a space after the wait and before the single quote.

If you receive 2 lines there should be CR, LF or both these codes between them.

Try to replace wait with waitln, or with one of the following

wait 'TAG COMPLD' 13 ';'
or
wait 'TAG COMPLD' 10 ';'
or
wait 'TAG COMPLD' 13 10 ';'
or
wait 'TAG COMPLD' 10 13 ';'

I get a TYPE MISPATCH on all 4 of those commands.

OK.
I put the # key in front of the number.
I ended up using:

wait'COMPLD'#13#10';'

But after it gets past that, it goes ahead and sends all the other commands at once.

I have other wait commands waiting for ';' but they seem to be ignored.

Try adding flushrecv after wait. Also, setsync 1 right after connect command may help.

Hmm. No joy.

It still sends the other lines after it gets through the first wait string.

I setsync 1, and did flushrecv after each wait and even before the next command.

Wierd.

ok, well what I ended up doing is placing a "pause 1" after the "wait ';'" command.

Seems to work ok for now.

Thanks for your help.
