3. Turn the CTX100 power off for 5 seconds and then back on to reset QISG, ISDN and other advanced
features.
4. Test the system to verify that the new software is running properly by checking dial tone, making
incoming and outgoing calls, internal and external calls and all other peripherals, such as voice mail,
etc., are working correctly.
5. Toshiba recommends that the SmartMedia card containing the customer data remains installed on the
CTX processor. This enables you to make and back up changes using CTX WinAdmin remotely.
Important! It is your responsibility to verify the system is working correctly after local Update is
complete.
Strata CTX670 Local Update
The Update process is used to change the Strata CTX software version and restore programmed data. The
new software is first copied from the SmartMedia card to the standby side of the Strata CTX670 processor
flash RAM. Then the new software on the Standby flash RAM is switched to the active mode and the
original software is switched to the Standby mode for a trial run.
After swapping the software version making the new software “Active,” the Strata CTX restores the
programmed data. If the system functions properly, the trial operation can be set to normal operation; if
there are problems you can switch the original software back to Active.
Step 1: Prepare SmartMedia Card with a Backup of the Customer Database
This SmartMedia card will contain a Backup of the Strata CTX programmed data (default.dat).
1. Insert a SmartMedia card into the CTX, format it, and then back up the customer database onto the
SmartMedia card using the Backup Data procedure (see “Data Backup” on page 14-1).
