Abstract
If a firmware set is released, a transmission system does not permit a change in a version combination of firmware included in the firmware set and does not display a change button on a firmware selection screen used for selecting a firmware set not to be changed/deleted. If a firmware set is not yet released, the transmission system permits a change in a version combination of firmware included in the firmware set. As for a firmware set whose change is permitted, the transmission system displays a change button on a firmware selection screen used for selecting a firmware set to be changed/deleted. As for a firmware set whose change is not permitted, the transmission system does not display the change button on the firmware selection screen used for selecting a firmware set to be changed/deleted.
