The instruction describes how to prepare Panasonic KX-TD1232/816/308 PBX for remote administration using external modem, connected to RS-232 serial port of PBX, and Panasonic KX-TD1232/816/308 Windows Programming Software.

   IMPORTANT NOTE!!!

It is neccessary to follow points 3, 4 and 5 of this instruction strictly in that sequence, in which they are indicated: at first point 3, then point 4 and then point 5. The modification of fulfilment of these items is inadmissiblis!!!

1. Install our Programming Software on your computer. Open progpan.ini file, (it locates in the Windows directory) after completion of installation, with any text editor (for example, NOTEPAD), find [Communications] section and add the following line:

   Timeout=10

   Save the file.

2. Prepare a cable to connect the modem to PBX: (both plugs of a cable should be 25-pin "male"; pay attention, that pin assignment of a cable is asymmetrical - do not confuse plugs when connect the cable to PBX).

3. Set (with proprietary phone or with our Software using ordinary direct cable connection) following parameters of the PBX COM-port (it's important):

   baud rate = 9600 bauds,
   word length = 8 bits,
   stop bit = 1,
   parity = none.

   If your PBX version supports the external modem, clear up initialization line for the external modem in PBX settings.

4. Connect the external modem to the computer by an ordinary modem cable and run any terminal software (HyperTerm from Windows95/98, for example). Set the parameters of your PC COM port (9600,8,1,NONE) the same as in point 3, and send the following commands to modem (commands that corespond for US Robotics Sportser modem are shown in brackets, they may vary for your modem - see your modem documentation)

   reload default settins (AT&F0)
   hang-off (ATS0=1)
   quite mode (ATQ1)
   load into flash-memory (AT&W0)

5. Disconnect the modem from computer and connect it to the RS232 port of PBX by a cable, which was described in point 2. Connect the modem to the phone line. Run our Software on your computer, (another modem is assumed to be connected to the computer (either internal or external with help of ordinary modem cable)).

   
   
   

   Select an menu item "Settings - COM port", choose COM -port, which is used to communicate with the second modem, and set the same parameters of COM port, as in point 3.

   
   
   

   Then go to the menu item "Work-Via Modem" and type in a field "Number" either:

   atdpXXXXXXX- if you have pulse dialing
   or
   atdtXXXXXXX - if you have tone dialing
   
   where XXXXXXX is the number you must dial to connect with remote modem.

That's all !!! Now everything depends only from the quality of your phone line. If it is good enough, you'll see green ON LINE message at the right lower corner of the main program window after modems connection is established (after a short delay).
