LD17

How do I change serial TTY port options ?

First, print the current setup :

LD 22

REQ prt
TYPE cfn

The port you are looking for should look something like this :

ADAN TTY 1
TTY_TYPE SDI
CAB 00
CARD 00
PORT 1
DES
BPS 9600
BITL 8
STOP 1
PARY none
FLOW no
USER TRF SCH
TTYLOG 0
BANR yes

Now, go to LD 17 :

LD 17

REQ chg
TYPE adan
ADAN chg tty 1

The USER prompt is where you define what this port should do. To eliminate one of the options, use an X :

USER xtrf

Doing this, the user prompt from the previous example will look like this in LD22 :

USER SCH

Admin and user administration in LD17

Did you know you can change and set users and passwords in LD17? Well, here is a short description. You will need PWD2 in order to perform these actions.
Be careful !!!

LD 17

REQ chg
TYPE pwd
PWD2 xxxxxxxx

Change the LOGIN_NAME and the OVLA (OVerLays Allowed) options for instance.

The rest is described on page 436 of the NTP. If you do not have one, just send an email to tom8787@tspforum.com

How can I configure the TTY lockout timer?

LOCK 30 This is your timer
AUDT YES
SIZE 1500
INIT YES

How can I bypass Meridian TTY lockout ?

On most Meridians, If you get the TTY login wrong 3 times then you will be logged out on that TTY until the time out period ends (Usually 30 minutes).

However, if you are using "Named" login & you have the PWD2 passcode. You can still login without having to wait for the timeout period to end.

This will only work with the login names option enabled in LD17.
