13.2 Caution Using Windows Telnet Client
There is a disadvantage when using Windows DOS as Telnet Client. Since Windows DOS cannot
translate a ‘\r’ to a ‘\r\n’ for the messages coming from Telnet Server, the multi-line command
response (for example, FRW? response) will be displayed as one line, with the latter lines
overwriting the previous lines.
In order to view the full response messages, CEFD recommends using HyperTerminal
configured as Telnet Client. To do so, configure the HyperTerminal as following:
1. Connect using TCP/IP instead of COM1 or COM2;
2. ASCII setup: check both the "Send line ends with line feeds" and "Append line feeds to
incoming line ends" options.
See the following screen captures for examples:
