Monitor Hospitality codes via admin term?

[GUIsareapassingfad]

Hey all,
I have no idea where my BG TTY PORT is (I think it was disconnected) but I was wondering if I can monitor the housekeeping code diplays using my admin terminal?
thanx in advance!

I think you need to change the TTY port, you are using to have USER = BGD?.

Here is an example below taken from an Option 11c system.

ADAN TTY 0
TTY_TYPE SDI
CAB 00
CARD 00
PORT 0
DES 08709_456789
FLOW NO
USER MTC SCH BUG BGD
CUST 00
TTYLOG 0
BANR NO

I think that the login will now show a "dot", but you can still login OK.

Firebird Scrambler is correct but if you want to receive the room status updates in real-time then you will also need to configure the background terminal port.
This command at the dot prompt will show the current port config:
.PR PO

To change port xx to display room status:
.SE OP PO xx DI ST

so I tried changing the port via LD 17:

ADAN chg tty 4
CTYP CPSI
PORT 0
DES CORETTY
DES
BPS
BITL
STOP
PARY
FLOW
USER MTC TRF SCH BUG BGD

SCH5656

"Invalid user types for this device."
Severity: Info

here is my cfg via ld 22.
I am trying to change TTY 4

ADAN TTY 0

FLOW NO
USER MTC

ADAN TTY 1

OMG this would be so much easier if someone on this property before me took notes!

Thanks again!

I don't think you can mix TRF and BGD together. Try removing TRF by doing XTRF first, then add BGD on TTY 4.

FS:
I removed TRF, then tried adding BGD, I get the same error:

SCH5656
Invalid user types for this device.

OK, The reason why you can't use TTY 4 and TTY 5 is because these TTY ports belong to your processors and are only meant for maint terminal use.

You need to use a different TTY port. This was why BGD was used on ones such as TTY 9 etc. I would go through all your RS232 connectors to check for any spare TTY ports as I think you will have some hidden around the switch or wiring frame etc.

is it the same protocol as the MTC terminal?
I think it may have been removed/disconnected from the backplane.
thanx again! will get back with results

I am at the point now where it looks like I need Hardware Knowledge. I need to cross reference physical serial ports with the logical ones assigned. Pretty daunting whyen there is no documentation!
