Double backslashes in monitor SEND string results in CR/LF being doubled.
Monitor logging showed that these are correctly converted to \x0d\x0a apart from the trailing "\\r\\n\\r\\n" and the monitor sends a sequence of "\x0d\x0a\x0d\x0a\x0d\x0a\x0d\x0a" which is not HTTP protocol compliant.
Following is an example of SEND string: Send "GET / HTTP/1.1\\r\\nHost: nt.gov.au \\r\\nConnection: Close \\r\\n\\r\\n"
Removed the extra back-slashes send "GET / HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: nt.gov.au \r\nConnection: Close \r\n" Now, the request is closed correctly \r\n\r\n Execute without \r\n at the end of the SEND string, following is an example: send "GET / HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: nt.gov.au \r\nConnection: Close" The above string works correctly.
