Hello,
   Judging by some of the conversations that have been going on in this network
there's quite a few whizz kid's (and x-whizz kids) out there,So could someone
help a mere mortal like myself solve a fairly simple problem please.

   I would like to test a motor controller,before its sent out for installation
it can be treated as a terminal so basically what I need to know is how to :

   Sit at one terminal inputting commands to and receiving information from a
fortran program running on a microvax (VMS 4.6) while it sends/receives
numerical strings to/from another terminal.

   A method which sends a load of guff before or after the numerical string will
probably not be of much use as the motor controller won't handle this. I have
tried using sys$assign, and sys$qio routine without success as yet


Any help will be greatly appreciated.
                             Yours Gratefully,
                                   Michael McCrory.
