Powershell control of IP2CC-P

I'm stuck trying to get this to work.  My powershell script:

[string]$RelayClosed= "setstate,1:1,1`r"
$s = new-object System.Net.Sockets.TcpClient("10.1.5.129", 4998)
$str = $s.GetStream()
$wrtr = new-object System.IO.StreamWriter($str)
$wrtr.Write("$RelayClosed");
start-sleep -m 500
$wrtr.Flush();
$wrtr.Close();
$s.Close()

 

Doesn't set the relay.  I can control the relay from iTest.  If I redirect the script to my PC running nc I see what I should: setstate,1:1,1 with a carriage return (Ctrl M).  As best I can tell, it should work.  Can anyone help?

  Actually it does work.  But only once on a PC. 

  IE

  Run script - works.

  Run script - fails

  Log off/back on

  Run script - fails

  reboot

  Run script - works

  Run script - fails

  Any time you are developing software over the network a open source software called WireShark is advisable. Use WireShark during a working script and also during a failed script and see the difference between the two. If you are having issues finding the problem, go ahead and post it here on the forum and we will take a look at it.

  I can use this code repeatedly and it works (Windows 10 Pro):

  $port=4998
  $remoteHost = "192.168.1.20"  
  $Message = "<YOUR SENDIR OR WHATEVER>`r"

  $socket = new-object System.Net.Sockets.TcpClient($remoteHost, $port)
  $data = [System.Text.Encoding]::ASCII.GetBytes($message)
  $stream = $socket.GetStream()
  $stream.Write($data, 0, $data.Length)
