Power Plink wait problem

Hi,
I have run into a problem to which i can't seem to find any solution, posting here is my last resort.

Problem:
I am using plink to access my router and run a few configuration commands. When in enter configurations mode, instead of sending next command plink keeps on waiting for manual input. It only sends command while not in configuration mode. I need a way to make it send commands while router is in configuration mode.

Router is Cisco ASR 9001 (IOS XR)
using ssh to connect to router
command used to loging to router :
Code:
plink.exe username@routerip -C -pw mypassword -m G:\commands.txt"

Commands in commands.txt
Code:
show interface description | i Gi0/0/1   ( runs correctly)
configure terminal    (runs correctly)
interface Gi0/0/1     (command is not send to router instead it keeps on waiting on CLI. Command can be manually sent from keyboard, but that is useless as i want to automate it)


While waiting in configure mode, I can manually send the command by keyboard but then it kills the reason for using a batch file. However, if i manually exit from configuration mode, plink then resumes to send the next comamnds.


So I am stuck as how to make it send commands while in configuration mode.

NAME
pconsole - parallel console shell for administering clusters. SYNOPSIS
pconsole DESCRIPTION
pconsole allows you to connect to each node of your cluster simultaneously, and you can type your administrative commands in a specialized window that 'multiplies' the input to each of the connections you have opened. pconsole is best run from within X Windows, although it is possible to employ it without X (in console mode) as well. You need to install pconsole on only 1 machine in the cluster, this would usually be your central administrative node. OPTIONS
pconsole need to be executed with superuser permissions, and enters in interactive mode let you attach other devices so that all the com- mands sent to the console mode of pconsole are sent to the devices. This allows you to parallelize the execution of the same command in various machines at a time. pconsole has two working modes: command mode From this mode pconsole can attach and dettach devices, list the attached devices at a time, connect to sending mode where you can send commands to the attached devices, and quit. To enter in command mode, use CTRL-A from sending mode. sending mode The mode where the commands sent to it are sent to the devices attached. To enter this mode use CTRL-D or use the console command.
