How do I send control characters or function keys?

Expect FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
Sending control characters is easy: just write a send command and enter the control character you want to send. I like to enter most control characters literally - since the resulting script is more readable. However, your editor has to allow this. For example, suppose you want to send a Control-A. Conventionally, most editors display this as ^A, but you can't just enter ^ and A. (This will just send those two characters. See similar questions...

I can't make my function keys work properly with TNOS under X ?

TNOS Installation
The function key problem with TNOS under X has to do with the fact that the terminfo entry for xterm is seriously broken in many distributions (I know it is in Slackware through at least 1.2.0). Following is an "xterm.tic" souce file for my hacked version that restores fkey functionality. Run it through tic to generate the new database file, and the problem should be solved in xterms (or rxvts) opened thereafter. BTW -- this problem drove me nuts for almost a month.

What does it mean when I hear three beeps while trying to scan a bar code?

Bar Code Scanners: Support
Three beeps during a scan attempt indicate that the scanner memory is full and the scanner cannot store any more bar codes. Connect your scanner to your host and upload the stored bar codes. The ROV Scanner allows you to limit the number of bar codes the scanner will store. The scanner can store up to 4000 UPC-A bar codes. If you can only store a few scans, check with your application provider or system administrator before changing this setting. See similar questions...

To make the request use their web form at http://lib.mansfield.edu/askref.html (but I'm not sure if they're open today due to the holiday). See similar questions...
