How do I to invoke Ctrla in a Linux terminal session. I am trying to share a screen using screen.

The command to turn on multiuser is CtrlA :multiuser on , I know how to press Ctrl+a on my keyboard but what is the command line version of Ctrla?

How would I type CtrlA :multiuser on, without Linux telling that the command is not found?
