To maintain Geo SCADA Expert's position as a leading SCADA solution, we operate a policy of continuous development. This means that, periodically, we release Geo SCADA Expert upgrades and service packs that:
- Add new features
- Improve existing features
- Allow Geo SCADA Expert to interact with a wider range of devices.
If you have been provided with a Geo SCADA Expert update, you will need to install it on your Geo SCADA Expert server(s) and clients. The installation page displays recommended steps that you should take before continuing the upgrade.
Virtual ViewX is supported by Geo SCADA Expert 2019 onwards. We strongly recommend that you install the Virtual ViewX server on a different machine to the Geo SCADA Expert server. This is to avoid potential performance issues due to the number of resources that each application uses.
If you do install Geo SCADA Expert and Virtual ViewX on the same machine, both applications must have the same version and build number. This is because the applications share some resources.
Please read the recommended steps that need to be taken before upgrading your installation.
- Make a backup, obtain the update files and check the release notes (see Preparing to Upgrade Geo SCADA Expert).
- Refer to the section that describes your server architecture:
- Upgrade Your Geo SCADA Expert Clients (Original WebX Excluded).
- If applicable, Upgrade Your Original WebX Clients.
- If applicable, and installed on a separate machine to the Geo SCADA Expert server, Upgrade Your Virtual ViewX Server.
