Check the Version of your Geo SCADA Expert Software

The latest Geo SCADA Expert software includes the most up-to-date security features designed to help protect your system from unauthorized access.

To check that you have the latest version of the Geo SCADA Expert server software, Geo SCADA Expert client software and Geo SCADA Expert service pack:

1. Log on to the Geo SCADA Expert Server Configuration Tool on your Geo SCADA Expert server.
2. Select the Help menu, then choose the About Server Config... option.
   Information about the Geo SCADA Expert software is displayed in a dialog box.

   

   The image shown above is for illustration purposes only. Later versions of Geo SCADA Expert may be available.

   The About dialog box contains contact details for Technical Support and Application information. The Application information includes details of the product label and version.

   • The product label is:

     Geo SCADA Expert <Year>R<Release Number>.<Service Pack>[ <Hot Fix> ]

     Example:

     ClearSCADA 2009 R2.14
     (the product label for ClearSCADA 2009 Release 2, Service Pack 1, Hot Fix 4).
     (ClearSCADA is the name by which Geo SCADA Expert was formerly known.)

     Geo SCADA Expert 2019
     (the product label for the first release of Geo SCADA Expert 2019).

   • The product version consists of four numbers:
     • <Major>—This number represents the version of the product and is set to 6.
     • <Minor>— The release number.
     • <Build>—A number that represents the amount of days that have elapsed since 1-Jan-2000 (when the build was requested).
     • <Revision>—Represents the build number within a specific day. This is usually 1 as it is uncommon for there to be multiple builds on the same day.

      A context-sensitive menu is displayed.
   2. Select the Help option.
      A further context-sensitive menu is displayed.
   3. Select the About option.

      The About dialog box provides information about the software version (it uses the same format as the About dialog box for the server software).

If you discover that a newer version of the software is available, please contact your vendor for more information.

For the optimal security, we recommend that you upgrade the latest version of the Geo SCADA Expert software with the latest service pack. However, if you choose not to upgrade, you should at least install the latest service pack for your existing version of Geo SCADA Expert.
