Procedure: Before beginning the upgrade procedure, make sure that both current and new

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.

the data. Click Yes.

compatibility with the new version of Maintenance Console, saved and opened.

(PBX) folder files, therefore the following procedure must be performed in order to upgrade your
SD card correctly.

as you will need it to complete this upgrade.

- Open new PRIVATE folder, open MEIGROUP folder, open PCC folder and open PBX folder
– all new files will be revealed.
- Select all files of your new PBX folder, right click and copy all files.
- Insert your current KX-TAW SD card into your SD reader/writer.
- Go to the appropriate drive for the SD Card, open PRIVATE folder, open MEIGROUP
folder, open PCC folder and open PBX folder.
- Paste all files you copied previously into the PBX folder on your KX-TAW SD Card.
- During copy process, prompts will ask you if you want to replace existing files with new files,
make sure that you choose option “YES – TO ALL”
Now your updated SD card is ready to use.
Initializing the TAW848:

- Slide the System Initialize Switch to the "SYSTEM INITIALIZE" position.

"NORMAL" position.
Restore the user data (DSSYS):
- Connect to the PBX using Maintenance Console.
- From the Utility menu, select File Transfer PC to PBX (SD Card). The Open dialog box will
be displayed.
- Select the converted DSSYS file that was saved previously. This file will be uploaded to the
SD Memory Card as the backup DSSYS file (DSSYS_S). A message is displayed when the
transfer is complete.
- Click OK.
- Next, go to the Utility menu, System Reset and then click Reset by the Command.
- Select Skip to continue without backing up current data to the SD Memory Card.
