Connection to controller which uses telnet protocol
The MCS controller uses telnet protocol. This type is not handled by the bliss communication layer. I am using telnetlib. It might be a good to add it to the standard bliss communication methods.
For info, I've tried the TCP communication on port 23 (the standard telnet port), but am getting replies from the controller only in very rare cases. Most of the time there is timeout error. Moreover, the controller only has one connection, which sometimes is not closed when closing the bliss session, so the telnet port is no more available and only hardware off/on releases it.
