Josh's explanation for reseting OF values should be correct;
However, my experience with my Power Mac 8500/120 has lead me to think that
using ttya (or b) at all is inconvenient without a real serial console lying
around.
Hence I prefer using the input device kbd and the output device /chaos/control
(the output device varies on each model of machine).
For example, with my voodoo3 card I use /bandit/3Dfx,Voodoo3 as an output
device.
Either way, at least having keyboard input has lead me to be able to set the
output device by typing blindly.

Clearly its a macos tool,  if you get it to run and select the right-hand
button, marked advanced, you can check the bottom right check-box, and type in
a new input and output device to be used.  Then click save and reboot while
holding command-option-O-F.
