 DT700 series terminals use the Version revision number to compare internal terminal
file and FTP server file versions during the Plug and Play process. If the terminal does
not have the same version number as the stored FTP server, the terminal downloads the
FTP configuration file version. Version number is automatically updated when a file is
modified, or the version number can be entered manually.
