| UNIT 4: PROGRAMMING - LESSON 3: SYSTEM PROGRAMMING BY PC Using the KX-TAW848 Maintenance Console Software After a connection to the Main Unit has been established, system programming can be performed. There are several important items to consider when using the Maintenance Console Software. First, you should understand the relationship between the SD Memory Card and the Main Units’ system memory. The SD Memory Card should be thought of as a backup memory location having little to do with the programming data that is actually used. It is a backup holding area that is updated and then mirrors the main system memory. For example, if we use either a proprietary telephone or the Maintenance Console to change a system speed dial number, this data is changed in the Main Units’ memory area immediately when the Store button (using a proprietary telephone) is pressed, or the Apply button (using the Maintenance Console) is selected. This data change is not made on the SD Memory Card until the SD Memory Backup icon on the Maintenance Console is pressed, or the program mode is exited. If for some reason the main system memory gets damaged or corrupted, the data on the SD Card can be used to restore the system. The Maintenance Console Software offers a unique feature that allows different levels of access for different types of users. There are three levels of access that can be established when the software is started. Upon startup, the Maintenance Console Software prompts the user to enter an Installer Code. The Installer Code entered will determine the level of access granted to the user. The three available Installer Codes are fixed, cap sensitive and cannot be changed.
INSTALLER CODE | ACCESS LEVEL | PROGRAMMING ABILITY
INSTALLER | Installer Level | All programming addresses are accessible
ADMIN | Administrator Level | Configuration, group and optional device addresses are not accessible
USER | User Level | System Speed Dial, Caller ID Tables and User level passwords can be accessed
Keep in mind that the Installer Code determines the access level the user will have once a connection is made between the Maintenance Console Software and the Main Unit. To make the connection, the user will have to enter a System Programming Password corresponding with the Installer Code used to start the software. Each Installer Code is assigned the same System Programming Password (1234) by default. These passwords can be up to 10 digits in length and should be changed frequently to prevent unauthorized access.
