Compatibility note
When using this firmware version (6.70) or future revisions with the Encryption Kit, any key server
tokens set with an odd number of characters for the PIN will not be totally backwards compatible in
Autoloaders or Libraries with code revisions 2.10, 4.00, 6.30, or 8.70 (the previous released versions).
In those cases, a token in an Autoloader or Library with 2.10, 4.00, 6.30, or 8.70 firmware revisions
will be able to accept the PIN for the token and access keys on the token, but the user will not be
able to change the PIN on the token, save the keys to a file, or restore the keys from a file until the
Autoloader or Library firmware is upgraded. Users should always upgrade to the latest version of
firmware to ensure complete compatibility.
