null characters

How does one send null characters, ie 0x00 through the serial port in a string?

As seen in the attached pic, I can send the characters in the direct 'Send Now' window, as in;
\85\170\1\0\1\0\0\0\18\0\19\1

but if I concatenate characters with & as in;
setVariable "serdat",chr(85)&chr(170)&chr(01)&chr(00)&chr(01)&chr(00)&chr(00) ........

it stops at the first chr(00)

I can't find the correct syntax to send my string out.

regards
Roland

Roland,

Give the most recent version a try ... we've updated the Send Sequence to allow for null characters to be sent correctly.
