Selecting vSphere Client Console window for input

[punchcard]

I have been trying to consistancely select the actual input part of the Vsphere client console window (vmware).  Some times it works flawlessly, and activaties the window, then insert the OS build string. The some time is will that the string I am trying to pass to the console and randomly select button (like power down, cd, floppie.....)

I have tried to using the "Class" of MKSEmbedded (see image), but have had no luck selecting by class.

I figure I am not correctly address the area of the window I want to pass the information to.

Anyone have suggestion?

================ code example =============

Opt("WinTitleMatchMode", -4)

Global $sWinTitle = $cServer, $hWin
$hWin = WinGetHandle($sWinTitle, "")

WinActivate ($hWin)
WinWaitActive($hWin)

Send("{CTRLDOWN}g{CTRLUP}")
MouseClick("left",0)
Sleep(1000)

Send( $sndstring)
Send("{ENTER}")

Sleep (3000)

Send("{CTRLDOWN}{ALTDOWN}{ALTUP}{CTRLUP}")

Here is the code I ended up using, it seems to select the console window correctly now each time.

This is for RHEL build process, so it is handy in a Satellite or Spacewalk build.

;  Here is the GUTS of selecting the correct window in VMware Console
;  "WindowsForms10.Window.8.app.0.ef627a"
;  CLASS:MKSEmbedded; INSTANCE:1"
Opt("WinTitleMatchMode", -4)
opt("MouseCoordMode",2)

$retWin = WinGetHandle($cServer)
$ctrlHandle = ControlGetHandle($retWin, "", "[Class:MKSEmbedded]")
$xy = ControlGetPos($retWin, "", $ctrlHandle)
$xpos = $xy[0] + ($xy[2] / 2 )
$ypos = $xy[1] + ($xy[3] / 2 ) 
WinActivate($retWin) 
MouseClick("primary", $xpos, $xpos, 1, 0)

Send("{CTRLDOWN}g{CTRLUP}") 
MouseClick("left",0)
Sleep(1000)

Send( $sndstring)
Send("{ENTER}")

Sleep (3000)

Send("{CTRLDOWN}{ALTDOWN}{ALTUP}{CTRLUP}")
