I have a couple of 11c's where when I go into MerMail (AX) command, the screen goes blank and I can't repaint or see anything. Have to turn off / turn on terminal to get back to the PBX session after a couple of CTRL-]'s.

Workaround is to grab the laptop, plug the TTY port into it and get in that way using ProComm.

Terminal emulation on these Wyse terminals is VT-220-7... VT-100 doesn't work either.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
 
I always use VT 320. Have you got a Miran card installed?. If so, then you may have to key in AX 8.

All the best

If it's working, then leave it alone!.
 
When you attach to mer mail try control-r

That usually re-draws the screen
 
Tried that - no luck.
 
try this type control w. you should see the cobra screen. than type if.
 
make sure console speed on card opt is same as link to tty. make sure F keys are set correct.
 
go to LD 37 (Stat TTY) and see if TTY 8 is in use, if it is then one of the other ttys is logged in still and you would need to plug into one of those to and try CTRL R as suggested or just disable / enable of of the other ttys one by one (except the one you are on) to RLS the Mermail passthrough......
