Software Update¶
Overview¶
It is recommended to regularly update the LabOne software on the HF2LI Instrument to the latest version. In case the Instrument has access to the internet, this is a very simple task and can be done with a single click in the software itself, as shown in Updating LabOne using Automatic Update Check. If you use one of the LabOne APIs with a separate installer, don’t forget to update this part of the software, too.
Updating LabOne using Automatic Update Check¶
Updating the LabOne software is done be downloading and installing the
latest LabOne software from the Zurich Instruments downloads page, as
shown in
Software Installation.
In case "Periodically check for updates" has been enabled during the
LabOne installation and LabOne has access to the internet, a
notification will appear on the Device Connection dialog whenever a new
version of the software is available for download. This setting can
later be changed in the Config tab of the LabOne user interface. In case
automatic update check is disabled, the user can manually check for
updates at any time by clicking on the button
in the Device Connection dialog. In case an update is found, clicking on
the button "Update Available" shown in Figure 1 will
start a download the latest LabOne installer for Windows or Linux, see
Figure 2. After download,
proceed as explained in
Software Installation
to update LabOne.
