In the shell command, it's /e:4096

In the bat file you show, I could not type something like:
	SI -b9600 auto
try 
	siocons %1 %2 %3 %4
or I believe (someone try this out?) that
	siocons %$
tells dos to put not just the first command, but the whole rest of the
commnad line minus the command in place of %$

Doshead by coercion,
