4.2 File
4.2.1 File—New
Creates a new system data file, used to program the PBX in Batch mode. All settings are in their initial or
default state, and any cards currently installed in the PBX are not displayed.
To upload the file created here to the SD memory card installed in the PBX, see "4.5.2 Utility—File Transfer
PC to PBX (SD Card)".
Note
Since selecting this option creates a blank system data file, uploading this file to the PBX will overwrite
all previous settings. Use only when necessary.
To create a new system data file
1.
From the File menu, select New.
2.
Click the appropriate model number.
3.
Select whether an MEC card is installed or not.
4.
Click OK.
4.2.2 File—Open
Opens a system data file previously saved on the PC, and enters Batch mode.
This option is only available at Installer level.
When opening a file created with an older version of the Maintenance Console (e.g. KX-TDA Maintenance
Console version 1.0), you will be asked whether you want to convert the data for use with the current version
or not. Using the data without converting may result in some data being loaded to an incorrect destination,
and is not recommended.
For more details regarding file conversion, see "4.4.6 Tool—System data Convert".
If the file is not supported by the PBX (e.g. a system data file from an incompatible PBX), it will not be
opened. The only files that can be opened are files that were created by the Maintenance Console for a
supported PBX.
To upload a file opened here to the SD memory card installed in the PBX, see "4.5.2 Utility—File Transfer
PC to PBX (SD Card)".

3.

If the file was created with an older version of the Maintenance Console, you will be asked if you want
to convert the data.
