To earth

WARNING
• Connect the frame of the PBX to earth.
• Proper earthing (connection to earth) is very important to protect the PBX from the bad effects
of external noise or to reduce the risk to the user of electrocution in the case of a lightning
strike.

CAUTION
• For earthing wire, green-and-yellow insulation is required, and the cross-sectional area of the conductor
must be more than 0.75 mm2 or 18 AWG.
• The earthing wire of the AC cable has an effect against external noise and lightning strikes, but it may
not be enough to protect the PBX. A permanent connection between earth and the earth terminal of
the PBX must be made.

CAUTION
• Before touching the System Initialise Switch, discharge static electricity by touching ground or wearing
an earthing strap.
• Once you have started the PBX and if you unplug the PBX, do not perform the following procedures
to start the PBX again. Otherwise, your programmed data will be cleared.
• The power supply cord is used as the main disconnect device. Ensure that the AC outlet is located
near the equipment and is easily accessible.

Notice
The SD Memory Card must be inserted in the SD Memory Card slot of the main board before startup.

Note
The PBX will continue to be powered even if the power switch is turned "OFF".

Note
• For safety reasons, follow the procedures as indicated when turning on the PBX.
• For safety reasons, do not stretch, bend, or pinch the AC cord and the DC cable of the AC adaptor.
5. While the RUN indicator is flashing, slide the System Initialise Switch back to the "NORMAL" position.
Depending on the configuration, initialisation takes about 1 min to 3 min. If successfully executed, the RUN
indicator will stop flashing and stay lit.
All data will be cleared and the PBX will be initialised to the default values. The DPTs should show the time
as 01:00.

IMPORTANT
Use only the AC adaptor (Panasonic PNLV6505/Panasonic PSLP1434) and AC cord supplied with
the PBX, or the Additional AC Adaptor (KX-A236).

4.1 Connecting the PC

The Maintenance Console serves as an overall system programming tool for the PBX. The Maintenance
Console's Quick Setup lets you easily configure the PBX to receive intercom and trunk calls, as well as apply
basic settings such as time and date.
To programme the PBX, connect it to the PC with serial interface.

CAUTION
When connecting a PC to the PBX via the RS-232C port, it is necessary to keep the following in mind to
protect the system:
1. Make sure that both connector cases (frame ground) of the RS-232C cross cable (shielded cable)/USB
cable are conductive. If they are not conductive, make sure that both connector cases of the cable are
firmly connected.
2. If this is not possible, connect the frame of the PBX to the frame of the PC using an earthing wire in
order to prevent difference in the electrical potentials.
