3.1.1Installing KX-TE Maintenance Console on a PC

System Requirements

Operating System

Microsoft® Windows® 98 SE, Windows Me, Windows 2000, or Windows XP

Hardware

CPU: 300 MHz Intel® Celeron® or faster

RAM: At least 128 megabytes (MB) of available RAM

Hard disk space: At least 100 MB of space for the installation, and approximately 2 MB of additional space for user files.

Setting the Password and Password Security

To maintain system security, a password is required to perform system programming. When KX-TE Maintenance Console is started for the first time, the Quick Setup utility will ask you to set the system password. To avoid unauthorised access and possible fraudulent dialling, do not disclose the password.

Warning to the Installer regarding the system password

1.Please inform the customer of the importance of the password and the possible dangers if it becomes known to others.

2.To avoid unauthorised access and possible fraudulent dialling, maintain the secrecy of the password.

3.We strongly recommend that you change the default password value to something else for reasons of system security. It is best to use a password of 7 digits.

4.Please change the password periodically.

5.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 KX-TE Maintenance Console software. If you do not have a backup of the system data, you must reset the PBX to its factory defaults and reprogramme 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 that appears by selecting the Help menu during PC programming. However, as system passwords can be extracted from backup copies of the system data file, do not allow unauthorised access to these files.

Note

This PBX has only one system password. It can be changed by either PT programming or PC programming. For this reason, the password can consist of numerals only.
