Starting the Maintenance Console and Assigning the Basic Items (Quick Setup)

When you start the Maintenance Console with the Installer Level Programmer Code and connect to the 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 basic items. For details about the basic items, refer to "1.14.2 Quick Setup" in the Feature Manual.

1.	Connect the PC to the PBX with an Ethernet straight cable or RS-232C cross cable.
2.	Start the Maintenance Console from the Start menu.
3.	"Information before programming" appears. a. Carefully read this important additional information, which includes updates to this and other manuals. b. Click OK to close this window.
4.	a. Enter the Installer Level Programmer Code (default: INSTALLER). The Programmer Code authorizes different programming levels, and the Quick Setup is only available when you start the 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). b. Click OK.
5.	Click Connect.
6.	a. Select KX-TDE100/200 from PBX Model. b. Select the LAN or RS-232C tab, depending on the type of PC connection with the PBX. c. Specify the settings as required.

7.	Follow the instructions of the Quick Setup wizard and assign the basic items (Quick Setup).
	The system menu appears. You may now begin programming the PBX.

Notes

	•	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 before resetting the PBX or turning off the power, or (2) exit the Maintenance Console so that the PBX automatically saves the system data.
	•	When programming PBX data which can be displayed on a proprietary telephone (PT) (extension names, group names, System Speed Dialing names, etc.), it is possible to enter characters which cannot be displayed on a KX-T7600 series PT. Characters which can be displayed on a KX-T7600 series PT are shown below in the white cells.

• 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 PBX. Doing so may cause the PBX to fail to start when you try to restart the system.
