Because of possible errors that can be induced through the telephone network,
Toshiba advises that you perform the Upgrade Utility on site.
Do not install the Stratagy Admin VSA.3x software into an existing
Stratagy Flash Admin2 or Admin3 directory used for Release 2 systems. If you
do, file corruption can occur when communicating with a Stratagy Flash.
The Stratagy Admin PC must be configured for the correct serial port in Stratagy
Admin prior to performing the next step. (See the Stratagy R3 I&M, Chapter 3 –
Configure Stratagy for configuration instructions.)
