PC Programming Manual 9
Section 1
Overview
This section provides an overview of programming the PBX.

1.1 Introduction
10 PC Programming Manual
1.1 Introduction
1.1.1 Introduction
These programming instructions are designed to serve as an overall system programming reference
for the Panasonic Hybrid IP-PBX. Each feature in the PBX has default settings that can be changed
to customize the PBX to your requirements. These settings control the functions of the PBX, and
changing them is referred to as "system programming".
Only one person can perform system programming at a time. Any other users trying to enter
programming mode will be denied access.
Ways to Program
There are two programming methods:
•PC (Personal Computer) Programming
All features and settings of the PBX can be programmed through PC programming with KX-
TDA Maintenance Console. Installing and starting the Maintenance Console is described in
Section 1.2 PC Programming. Individual PC programming items are described in KX-TDA
Maintenance Console Operating Instructions.
•PT (Proprietary Telephone) Programming
A subset of the features and settings of the PBX can be programmed using a PT. PT
programming is described in the PT Programming Manual.
1.1.2 Entering Characters
The characters on a white background below can be used when storing a name, message, password
or other text entry data using a PC. The available characters vary according to the model of PBX.

Installing the Maintenance Console
Notes
• To install or uninstall the software on a PC running Windows 2000 Professional or Windows
XP Professional, you must be logged in as a user in either the "Administrators" or "Power
Users" group.
• To connect the PC to the Hybrid IP-PBX via USB, the KX-TDA USB driver must be installed.
Follow the instructions of the wizard to install the KX-TDA USB driver. When the Hybrid IP-
PBX is first connected to the PC via USB, you may be asked to select the appropriate USB
driver. Browse for and select the KX-TDA USB driver that was installed previously.
Starting the KX-TDA Maintenance Console and Assigning the Basic
Items (Quick Setup)
When you start the KX-TDA Maintenance Console with the Installer Level Programmer Code and
connect to the Hybrid IP-PBX for the first time after initialization (with the factory default setting),
Quick Setup will launch automatically. During Quick Setup, you will set up the following basic items:
• Date and Time of the Hybrid IP-PBX. The date and time set to the PC's clock will be used.
• System Password for installer for PC programming.
• Operator and manager settings. Operator extensions for all time modes (day/lunch/break/
night) can be assigned.
• Flexible Numbering plan to Type 1 or Type 2. If Type 1 (with ) is selected, " " must prefix
all feature numbers (except access numbers) when an extension user wants to use a
feature.
• Operator call and Idle Line Access/ARS numbers.
• Remote Maintenance Dial Number. Enter the complete telephone number of the Hybrid IP-
PBX. When necessary, this number will be used to access the Hybrid IP-PBX from a remote
location for maintenance purposes.
1. Copythe setup file of the KX-TDA Maintenance Console to
your PC. (Its icon is shown here, on the left.)
2. Double-click the setup file to run the installer.

Notice
1. During a long programming session, it is highly recommended that you periodically save the
system data to the SD Memory Card. If the PBX undergoes a sudden power failure or if the
system is reset for some reason, all the system data in RAM will be lost. However, if system
data has been saved to the SD Memory Card, it can be easily restored.
To save the system data to the SD Memory Card, (1) click the "SD Memory Backup" icon
4. Enter the Installer Level Programmer Code (default:
INSTALLER).
The Programmer Code authorizes different programming
levels,and the QuickSetupis onlyavailablewhenyoustart
the KX-TDA Maintenance Console with the Installer Level
Programmer Code.
Note
There are 2 other Programmer Codes with limited
authorization: Administrator Level (default: ADMIN),
and User Level (default: USER). (→1.2.2 Password
Security)
5. a. Click the check box to connect to the Hybrid IP-PBX.
Options will appear as shown here, on the left.

c. Select "USB", then click [OK].
Note
To connecttotheHybridIP-PBX viaUSB,theKX-TDA
USB driver must be installed on the PC, as explained
above in "Installing the Maintenance Console".
7. Follow the instructions of the Quick Setup wizard and
assign the basic items.
The program menu appears. You may now begin
programming the Hybrid IP-PBX.

before resetting the PBX or turning off the power, or (2) exit the Maintenance Console so
that the PBX automatically saves the system data.
2. When the PBX is initialized, not all data is taken from the SD Memory Card. The data for
present status of extension FWD/DND buttons is taken from battery backup memory in the
PBX.
3. The PC will not perform any shutdown operation, or enter the power-saving system standby
mode while the Maintenance Console is connected to the PBX.
To perform either of the operations above, first close the connection to the PBX.
CAUTION
Do not remove the SD Memory Card while power is supplied to the Hybrid IP-PBX. Doing so may
cause the Hybrid IP-PBX to fail to start when you try to restart the system.
1.2.2 Password Security
To maintain system security, system passwords are required to access certain programming
functions of the PBX. By giving different users access to different passwords, it is possible to control
the amount of programming that each user is able to perform.
The following types of system passwords are available:
The three programmer codes used for PC programming can be set through Maintenance Console,
using the 2.4.6 Tool—Programmer Code Change option. For more information about programmer
codes, see 2.1.2 Access Levels.
Warning to the Administrator or Installer regarding the system password
1. Please provide all system passwords to the customer.
2. To avoid unauthorized access and possible abuse of the PBX, keep the passwords secret,
and inform the customer of the importance of the passwords, and the possible dangers if
they become known to others.
3. The PBX has default passwords preset. For security, change these passwords the first time
that you program the PBX.
4. Change the passwords periodically.
5. It is strongly recommended that passwords of 10 numbers or characters be used for
maximum protection against unauthorized access. For a list of numbers and characters that
can be used in system passwords, see 1.1.2 Entering Characters.

6. If a system password is forgotten, it can be found by loading a backup of the system data
into a PC, and checking the password using the Maintenance Console software. If you do
not have a backup of the system data, you must reset the PBX to its factory defaults and
reprogram it. Therefore, we strongly recommend maintaining a backup of the system data.
For more information on how to back up the system data, refer to the on-line help of the
Maintenance Console.
However, as system passwords can be extracted from backup copies of the system data file,
do not allow unauthorized access to these files.

2.1.1 Starting Maintenance Console and Software Modes
Every time Maintenance Console is started, a dialog box will appear. From here, you can enter any
of the 3 available software modes.
• Initial mode
Initial mode describes the state when Maintenance Console is not connected to the PBX,
and no data files are open. In Initial mode, most options of Maintenance Console are
unavailable. For details, see 2.1.2 Access Levels.
• Batch mode
Batch mode allows you to create new system data files, and make modifications to system
data files stored on your PC, without being connected to the PBX. When you connect to the
PBX, the modified data will be uploaded at one time.
• Interactive mode
Interactive mode allows you to directly modify the system data and settings stored in the
PBX's memory from a PC that is connected to the PBX. This mode displays the system data
that is currently being used by the PBX, rather than the system data stored on the SD
memory card. Data can be modified and results displayed in real time.
