Chapter 1 - The Grand Tour; Stratagy Flash's Memory - Toshiba Stratagy Flash Installation Manual

The Grand Tour
The Stratagy Flash (shown right) is a stand-
alone two- or four-port, solid-state voice
messaging platform that combines Stratagy
software with flash memory and an integrated
Central Processing Unit (CPU), all enclosed in
a compact and easily installed unit
manufactured by Dialogic® Corporation.
Both models, the two-port (SG-F-2) and the
four-port (SG-F-4), are equipped with a flash
memory cartridge that provides approximately
four hours of voice storage. Upgrading the
Stratagy Flash to four ports does not require
additional hardware. The upgrade is performed remotely by Toshiba, following the same
procedure as upgrading ports on the Stratagy DK.
Each Stratagy Flash has been pre-programmed at the factory for out-of-box (plug-and-play)
operation on the Strata DK14 and DK40i/DK40. This includes the integration and configuration
parameters, default station (extension number) User ID mailboxes, and company greeting and
instructions.
The supported systems and recommended software versions are:
•
Strata CTX100/CTX670 — all releases
•
Strata DK14/DK8 — all releases
•
Strata DK40i/DK40/DK16e/DK16 — all releases
•
Strata DK24/DK56/DK96 — Release 4
•
Strata DK424/DK280 — all releases
The Stratagy Flash requires Stratagy Admin software, installed on a separate IBM-compatible
Stratagy Admin PC, for local or remote administration and maintenance. Some basic
administrative functions (e.g., adding User IDs, resetting passwords) can be performed by the
System Administrator using a touchtone telephone (see the System Administrator Guide on the
Stratagy Library CD-ROM for details).

Stratagy Flash's Memory

The Stratagy Flash uses a solid-state flash memory data storage device that uses non-volatile,
semiconductor, read/write storage technology. This means that if power is interrupted, the database
is not lost. The Stratagy Flash database information remains secure through power outages without
employing on-board batteries.
The flash memory has very high-data integrity with automatic bad-spot management and sparing,
and full Error Correction Coding (ECC) for high reliability. The flash memory data storage device
contains no moving parts, is fast, noiseless, light and rugged. It operates in the Stratagy Flash as an
industry standard Integrated Drive Electronics (IDE) hard disk drive.
