Is there a way to send a function key combo to the system while using rcons?

For example, when Anaconda is running during initial provisioning of a stateful 
system, it's sometimes useful to go to another TTY
via F2 or alt-F2.
This works when viewing the console with iDRAC or iLO or VNC when the nodes are 
virtual, but I haven't been able to send the key
when viewing the node with rcons.

Has anyone done this with rcons? Is it possible?
It looks like you can send an octal control value via ^Ec\ and then the code, 
but it didn't seem to work on the system I was using.

Thanks,
Russ
