That should be "\n" not "/n"
If I understand correctly, this is the line you tried:
file/clearcache.dgi |call $esystem\\dgi\\clr.bat $c $a $t /n KEY 20992
If so then "/n", "KEY" and "20992" were sent to clr.bat as the 4th, 5th
and 6th command line arguments.
Since clr.bat is "hardcoded" to accept only 3
Then all additional arguments will not even be seen.
However, if you correctly used "\n"... I'm at a loss to explain what happened.
