Hello,

On a Nortel Meridian PBX, a series of control characters was entered into the terminal port by mistake. Now, any character that is typed on the keyboard is echoed as a "1" by the PBX. Output coming from the PBX to the terminal (dumps, timestamps, etc) displays correctly. The connection was working and databits, parity, and speed were not changed.

I have a second connection to the PBX using the modem that works.

Is there a way to clear the process that controls the terminal so that it will be reset and the input from the keyboard will work correctly again?

Thank you for any suggestions that you may have.
 
I would be surprised if the issue was with the meridian. However, you can disable the tty in ld 37 then out it in in ld 17. pay to print the tty in ld 22 1st so that you re program it when your done.
 
Sorry but has to be asked - have you powered off and on the terminal?

Next try just LD 37
DIS tty x <-- x is the tty number
enl tty x

If still no good out and rebuild
 
Thank you for the suggestions.

The terminal was powered off and on. The LD 37 option was tried, the tty 1 port was removed and then added again using LD 17 and the response is the same.
