911 Remote Program Update
10-12 Strata CTX Programming - Part 2: CTX WinAdmin Programming 04/03
Important!
● If power is turned off/on or if the Strata CTX is re-started before switching the Active software from
“Trial” to “Normal”, the CTX670 will switch the old software back to Active.
● It is your responsibility to verify the system is working correctly after Remote Update is complete.
Notes
● If the new version of software is not performing properly, on the CTX670 only, you can activate
the old version of software again by initiating a Clear-reboot.
● Clear-reboot swaps the active and standby sides of flash memory. You must always install a
SmartMedia card containing a copy of the current back up data before initiating a Clear-reboot or
all programmed data will be erased.
● If the CTX100 system is not working properly with the new software, you must reinstall the
original software using this Update procedure.
