Getting Plink serial connection to return to cmd or end

I am using command line PuTTY (plink) in cmd for some automation. I was able to redirect some commands to execute some serial comport commands to my device. However, once it finishes executing the commands, the serial connection stays active and plink never returns to cmd or closes. Is there a way to make this happen? The only way I can get it to exit is to hit ctrl+c on the keyboard, which breaks my automation.

For example:

plink -serial -sercfg 115200 COM7 < somecommands.txt

This executes then just stays in the plink serial session.

My only way around it is to use taskkill to exit.

Thanks a bunch!

I'm afraid that there's no better way than your taskkill solution. – Martin Prikryl May 21 '19 at 05:18
