Chat Script Argument

Site chat scripts allow the LRS to connect to different types of servers by providing a custom script which defines the connection procedure. A chat script consists of lines where each line is a command. The possible commands are expect, fail, and send. The expect and send commands each take a single argument which is the string to expect or to send.

The following special characters can be used in expect arguments, which are case-sensitive:
