To write string through using "caput" you have to use the "-s" option,
e.g.

kao 264: caget chademoai2.SCAN
chademoai2.SCAN                Passive
kao 265: caput -s chademoai2.SCAN .2 second
Old : chademoai2.SCAN                Passive
New : chademoai2.SCAN                .2 second


Just type caput it should give you the on-line command syntax 
about caput.
