hey you can read it but doesn't mean you will be able to unlock it!

 

[Pujdo011]

to unlock what?
All manuals was password protected (just for vendors), now that is not case. Everybody can read and learn.

Maintenance consola is great, I just hope that consola is not slow like other TDA's

unlock the system not the manual

i'm told that the 600 will need to be installed by a certified installer. if you are not certified, then you will not be able to gain a registration key to unlock a card/system.

pana are doing this to stop all the problems they had with uncertified techs working on the 500.

i suppose this will keep us in our jobs longer, and also cut out half the problems we had with the 500 that were caused by clowns that didn't know what they were doing.

yes I think your man thinks he can buy the 600
and put it in himself!I am suprised the panasonic uk
does not have there dealer website locked down as well!
BTW in the the states the tda product can only be
unlocked and install by certified dealers thank god.

All current TDA models can be installed by anyone in Aust as long as they know the password. Obviosuly, installation by a non certified dealer will void the factory warranty but no extra codes or hardware registration is required.

As i said before, this is all going to change with the 600 so it should be interesting to see what effect it has on non certified dealers attempting to work on the system...

panasonic oz has a different look at the whole
dealer security thing it seems really caused a problem here in the USA.

FYI - I went up one level on the site to -

http://download.panasonic.co.uk/bts/

and noticed this warning -

"The files on this web site are for UK (E) models only, using them in other product types is likely to cause mis-operation of the product."

I don't think I'll be using this stuff here in the USA . . .

hey if you are a legit dealer why would you use the uk software?

 

[shardian]

Yeah i wouldn't use the software, but as the 600 isn't released here yet, its a good preview of what to expect. Also the manual remains pretty much the same so that is fairly safe to read

Spoke to pana here, and got told that it's fine to use the software off the UK site, as long as you choose to install the software for your particular region. Only 3 versions of the software exist in the world and the only difference is the language that everything is in.
