To send a character sequence within the input field you can use either of the following Locator Strategies:

• cssSelector:

  obj.FindElementByCss("input.form-control.ng-pristine.ng-untouched.ng-invalid.ng-invalid-required[id^='cartPrdQtyBtn']").Click
  obj.FindElementByCss("input.form-control.ng-pristine.ng-invalid.ng-invalid-required.ng-touched[id^='cartPrdQtyBtn']").SendKeys("10000")
  

• xpath:

  obj.FindElementByXPath("//input[@class='form-control ng-pristine ng-untouched ng-invalid ng-invalid-required' and starts-with(@id, 'cartPrdQtyBtn')]").Click
  obj.FindElementByXPath("//input[@class='form-control ng-pristine ng-invalid ng-invalid-required ng-touched' and starts-with(@id, 'cartPrdQtyBtn')]").SendKeys("10000")
  

Note: As it is a dynamic element you need to induce a waiter for the element to be clickable
