EXPECT | Shutdown MITEL by Serial.

Hi everybody,

I'm from Spain so excuse my english.


I'm Trying to Shutdown the Mitel 3300 CXI by serial port.

I'm trying to do this with the EXPECT software.

The problem is:

The connection is done.
The "shutdown" is done BUT the Mitel auto-boot if the script does not type "<space><space><space>" to keep the Mitel powered off.

Image

I wrote the next script, of course I tried a lot of variants but I can't send the characters " " (space x3).

#!/usr/bin/expect
spawn screen dev/ttyUSB0
send "appShutdown"
expect "countdown starts..."
send " " (3 spaces but the forum only display 1)
interact


If I can share something more, tell me. Thanks.

Is too important for me...

Thanks for read.

Regards.

RFCOMM_SPPD(1)						    BSD General Commands Manual 					    RFCOMM_SPPD(1)

NAME
rfcomm_sppd -- RFCOMM Serial Port Profile daemon SYNOPSIS
rfcomm_sppd [-bhtS] -a address -c channel DESCRIPTION
The rfcomm_sppd utility is a Serial Port Profile daemon. It can operate in two modes: client and server. In client mode, rfcomm_sppd opens RFCOMM connection to the specified address server and channel. Once connection is established, the rfcomm_sppd utility provides access to the server's remote serial port via stdin/stdout or via pts(4) interface if -t option was specified. If the -S option is specified, rfcomm_sppd will operate in server mode and act as RFCOMM server, listening on ANY address and advertising a virtual serial port via the sdpd(8) daemon. If -t options was specified, the server side of the virtual serial port is attached to a pseudo- terminal. Otherwise the virtual serial port is attached to the stdin/stdout. rfcomm_sppd should be run as root in order to communicate with sdpd(8) in this case. The rfcomm_sppd utility opens both master and slave pseudo terminals. This is done to ensure that RFCOMM connection stays open until rfcomm_sppd is terminated. The data received from the master pseudo terminal are sent over the RFCOMM connection. The data received from the RFCOMM connection are written into master pseudo terminal. The application in its turn opens the slave pseudo terminal and operates on it just like it would operate over the standard serial port. The options are as follows: -a address In client mode, this required option specifies the address of the remote RFCOMM server. If this option is specified in server mode, rfcomm_sppd will only accept connections from the Bluetooth device with address address. The address can be specified as BD_ADDR or name. If name was specified then rfcomm_sppd utility will attempt to resolve the name via bt_gethostbyname(3). -b Detach from the controlling terminal, i.e., run in background. -c channel In both client and server mode, this option specifies the RFCOMM channel to connect to or listen on. In server mode, the channel should be a number between 1 and 30. If not specified, rfcomm_sppd will try to bind to ``wildcard'' RFCOMM channel number. The actual RFCOMM channel will be obtained via getsockname(2) call and will be used to register Serial Port service with sdpd(8). In client mode, the channel could either be a number between 1 and 30 or a service name. Supported service names are: DUN (for DialUp Networking service), FAX (for Fax service), LAN (for LAN Access Using PPP service) and SP (for Serial Port service). If channel was not specified then rfcomm_sppd utility will try to obtain RFCOMM channel for Serial Port service via Service Discovery Protocol from the server. -h Display usage message and exit. -S Server mode; see DESCRIPTION. -t Use slave pseudo tty. If not set stdin/stdout will be used. This option is required if -b option was specified. FILES
/dev/pts/[num] slave pseudo terminals EXIT STATUS
The rfcomm_sppd utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs. EXAMPLES
rfcomm_sppd -a 00:01:02:03:04:05 -c 1 -t Will start the rfcomm_sppd utility and open RFCOMM connection to the server at 00:01:02:03:04:05 and channel 1. Once the connection has been established, a pts(4) can be used to talk to the remote serial port on the server. rfcomm_sppd prints the name of the pts(4) to use on std- out. SEE ALSO
