Data Files Required: PCMC Program version 3.0 – TDA50pcprogv3.0.1.12-R2_dealer.exe TDA50 version 3.0 - files are included with the zip files from the Dealer Only web site. The file is labeled PRIVATE.

Overview: This procedure is to be used to upgrade an existing TDA50 version 1.0 or 2.0 to use the new 3.0 features.

Procedure:
Before beginning the upgrade procedure, make sure that both current and new versions of PC Maintenance Console are installed on the PC.

Note1: Certain user data is cleared during the upgrade process, including Outgoing Messages (OGMs). Before upgrading the TDA, be sure to back up OGMs to a PC using Maintenance Console.

Note2: If you are updating an existing KX-TDA5920 Enhanced SD Card: Remember to backup the DSKEYSD file before upgrading. This DSKEYSD file is coded for use with the same TDA5920 SD card. If this file is deleted, the Enhanced Features will not function. Then you may upgrade the TDA5920, following the procedure above. This is a five (5)-step procedure. 1-Backing up current DSSYS, 2-Converting DSSYS data, 3-Updating existing SD card, 4-Initializing TDA50, 5-Restoring DSSYS data.

Backing Up Current System Data (DSSYS):
Connect to the TDA50 using Maintenance Console.
(The appropriate version of Maintenance Console will be selected automatically.)

From the Tool menu, select SD Memory Backup.

The current DSSYS system data file will be copied from the PBX to the SD Memory Card.

Copy the current DSSYS file from the SD Memory Card to the PC.

Go to Utility menu, select File Transfer PBX (SD Card) to PC.

Select DSSYS from the list of files.

Click Transfer. The Save dialog box will be displayed.

Select the folder to save the file in and enter a file name.

Click Save. A message will be displayed when the transfer is complete.

Click OK. Go to File menu, select Exit, click OK.

The Maintenance Console software will close.

This step is necessary to switch to the current version of Maintenance Console.

Converting the current user data:

Start new version 3.0 Maintenance Console. (Do not connect to the TDA50.)

From the File menu, select Open.

The Open dialog box will be displayed.

Navigate to the folder in which you saved the DSSYS file previously.

Select the file and click Open.

A dialog box will appear to confirm that you want to convert the data.

Click Yes.

Enter a name for the new converted system file.

The DSSYS file will be converted for compatibility with the new version of Maintenance Console, saved and opened.

Note: You will need a SD Card Reader/Writer for this procedure.



Power off TDA50 system, wait 10 seconds and remove SD card.

Keep this SD card on hand as you will need it to complete this upgrade.
