| UNIT 4: PROGRAMMING - LESSON 5: SYSTEM BACKUP AND RESTORE System Backup and Restore The KX-TAW848 includes a Backup and Restore function that allows the programming stored in the Main Unit’s SD Memory Card to be saved to a Hard Drive, floppy disk or other storage medium supported by your PC. It is a good idea to perform periodic backups of the programming data and to keep a copy on site. This will ensure that in the unlikely event of a system failure, the previously saved information can be easily restored. Backup The backup procedure is performed using the Utility Menu and then selecting “File Transfer PBX (SD Card) to PC” from the drop down list. This opens the File Transfer Window used to select the file to be saved to the PC. Although many files are shown, only the DSSYS file can be transferred. This is done by highlighting the DSSYS file and clicking on the Transfer button. Enter a name in the Save As dialog box that opens to save the file.

Select the Utility Menu and choose “File Transfer PC to PBX (SD Card)” from the drop down menu, enter the name of the file to be transferred and click OK. The file transfer will begin and when finished a message will be shown indicating the transfer is complete and that the system must be reset before the file will be used by the system.
