Accessing container app from tty4

Project help
1

Hi there,
we have an multi-container setup for an app, playing multimedia content - this part work pretty well. We have also developed an controller app, that is intended to communicate with master process to query status, reset master process and so on. This app is meant to be accessible from tty4 console (ctrl+alt+F4)

Unfortunately I was unable to find out the way how to setup a container to output to tty4 on Balena.

Would anyone point us to right direction or give us an hint how to set this up?

Hello @simonahorakova first of all welcome to the balena community.

Could you please share more information about what device type are you using?
Could you please share more details about the controller app? is this a mobile app or similar? How do you connect this device with your balena device? USB?

did you check what is visible from /dev/tty... on the HostOS Terminal?
