System option #17 controls how the deprecated %TNMBR routine determines the terminal number.
On OpenVMS, if you set option #17, %TNMBR uses the physical device to determine the terminal number for a virtual terminal. If you don’t set option #17, %TNMBR returns a number based on the VT device specification for a virtual terminal.
