Since tandem is a unix executeable, pipe the commands you want into it.
For example, suppose port 17 is sitting at TCL, and you want to print
"THIS IS A TEST" to it's screen.

If you have a file, tandemcmds, that contains

   ^027FDISPLAY THIS IS A TEST
   ^027X

At unix:
   cat ./tandemcmds | $UVHOME/bin/tandem 17

At basic:
  EXECUTE \SH -c"cat ./tandemcmds | $UVHOME/bin/tandem 17"

Is it just feed-mode  that doesn't work, or tandem in general?
If the latter, it be a matter of permissions on the binary executable.

On unix, tandem itself won't let non-administrators proceed, even if there are 
execution rights for group or other.

On QA/Dev we use the sticky bit to let any ol' developer in, executing as root:

   $ls -l $UVHOME/bin/tandem
   -rwsr-x--x  1 root  other  2752512 Jul 29  2003 /dbms/uv/bin/tandem 
  ^
   
On production we have it configured as IBM delivers it (admin only):

   $ls -l $UVHOME/bin/tandem
   -rwxr-x--x  1 root  other  2752512 Jul 29  2003 /dbms/uv/bin/tandem
  ^
 
Once permissions are ok,  the Poke-like "F" feed mode works for me, with a 
couple caveats should the targeted process dive into another unix shell.

Somebody knows how do I do a POKE command on Universe?
I used the POKE command with pick/D3 and I need to use now with UV.
I tried the TANDEM using feed mode, but did not work.
By the way, with D3 POKE command we can write from a line into input buffer of 
the another line.

Computronics sells a "Peek" for Unix, which has a "Poke" capability. 
They've been around for years, (used to do Pr1me/Primos), and I can 
personally attest to their good character.
