Upgrading Software From Version 2.0x, 2.1x, or 2.2x to 2.50 or Higher
Due to the port capacity changes in 2.50 software, it is recommended the system be cold started and the cus-
tomer database reprogrammed. However, using PCPro 3.00 or higher, you can choose to reload the majority
of the customer database using the steps below.
Use the following steps to update your Aspire S with 2.0x, 2.1x, or 2.2x software to 2.50 or higher. This pro-
cess is only required to bring the system up to 2.50 or higher. Once the system has been updated to this level,
any future software upgrades should follow the instructions indicated
the following steps are not used when upgrading to 2.50 or higher, the IntraMail feature will not function
correctly.

As a precaution, it is recommended that the customer database be saved prior to updating the system
software. Refer to
Backing Up/Restoring a Database
