Basic Programming Overview:Note: This page is intended as a quick reference guide for KX-TDA Series dealers/technicians.Programming Introduction:These KX-TDA50 programming instructions are designed to serve as an overall phone system programming beginning reference for the Panasonic KX-TDA50 Hybrid IP-PBX. The Panasonic PBX has default settings which can be changed to meet your needs. These settings control the manner in which the PBX features described in this Feature Guide function, and changing these settings is referred to as "system programming."System Programming Should Be Performed by a KX-TDA dealer/technician. KX-TDA50 System programming can be performed by only one person at a time. A second person attempting to program the system will be denied access to system programming.
There are two (2) programming methods: |
Simultaneously using multiple accounts with Skype 4.0
Simultaneously using multiple accounts with Skype 4.0
As an addendum to my earlier post, I’ve just noticed that a) Skype 4.0 Beta 2 runs pretty stable on Windows Vista 64 and b) has built-in support for managing multiple Skype accounts! With the help of this feature, you could for example set up a private account and a business account and use both of them at the same time, using the same Windows user account. The setup is straightforward:
1) Install Skype 4.0 Beta 2
2) Create a shortcut to Skype.exe and place it on the quick launch bar. Rename the shortcut to “Skype Private Account”, for example. Start Skype using this shortcut and setup your first account (in this case, your private account).
3) Create another shortcut to Skype.exe (add it to the quick launch bar, too) and name it “Skype Business Account”. Open the “Properties” dialog of this shortcut by right-clicking on it. In the “Target” text field of the properties dialog box, append ” /secondary” (without double quotes) to the Skype.exe path that is already there. For example, in my case, the “Target” text field contains:
“C:\Program Files (x86)\Skype\Phone\Skype.exe” /secondary
Rename this shortcut to “Skype Business Account” (right-click->rename). Having done this, start Skype using this shortcut. Skype will then prompt you to enter the credentials of another Skype account of yours (in this example, of your business account).
You can also choose different icons for the two shortcuts. Further, I’d assume the /secondary feature isn’t limited to managing two Skype accounts, though I haven’t tested it with more than two accounts. The main advantage of this “/secondary” feature is that you don’t need to have a separate Windows user account for each of your Skype accounts. Note however that, even with this solution, a new instance of Skype will be created for each of your Skype accounts – every instance consuming about 40 MB of RAM.
I think that’s a very useful feature and I like it a lot.

For Skype 4.0 and later
For Skype 3.8 and earlier
For Skype 4.0 and later
In order to use more than one Skype account on the same computer at the same time you need to start a new instance of Skype:
From the Windows taskbar, click Start > Run (or press the Windows and R keys on your keyboard at the same time)
In the Run window, enter the following command (include the quotes) and press OK:
"C:\Program Files\Skype\Phone\Skype.exe" /secondary
If you get any error messages, please copy and paste the exact command from this email and try again.
Please keep in mind that if you have changed the installation path for Skype then you need to enter the correct path for the Skype.exe file.
If this solution fails, you can try another option:
Find the Skype executable file (Skype.exe) in: C:\Program Files\Skype\Phone\
Right click on it and choose: Send to > Desktop (create shortcut)
Locate the shortcut on the desktop, then right-click on it and choose Properties
In the Target field, add: /secondary. The Target field should now be: "C:\Program Files\Skype\Phone\Skype.exe" /secondary
Click OK. You can now start a new instance of Skype every time you double-click on the new shortcut.
For Skype 3.8 and earlier
Requirements: Windows XP, Two Skype User accounts
First, create a new Windows user by going to the Control Panel and clicking on User Accounts. Choose Create a new account and follow the steps to set permissions. We also suggest setting a password for the new user by clicking on the newly created user and choosing the Set Password option. The new user will also require admin rights on your PC.
Next, create a shortcut to Skype or make a copy of the shortcut that is already in the Start menu. Right-click this new shortcut and choose Properties. On the bottom of the first page there is a button labelled Advanced... . Click this button and select Run with different credentials. Select OK, and then select OK again to close the Properties dialog.
You're all set. Whenever you use this new shortcut it will ask for a Windows username and password. Enter the Skype Name and password of the user you created earlier by choosing The following user: option. Click OK and you'll have a second instance of Skype. It will require that you sign in with your Skype Name and password the first time.
To help automate the Run as trick you can create a second desktop icon for Skype and modify its properties. Click the Advanced button and check the box Run with different credentials. After clicking on the modified icon it will ask you to sign in as another user. Changing the icon graphic also helps ensure you click on the correct icon.
If you have multiple USB headsets or USB Phones you should be able to set up both instances of Skype to use a different sound device.
