Technical information

To upgrade the software from version 6, download the latest version 7 release and perform a manual update using the downloaded file (1).

Automatic updates

Automatic updates work only within the same major version of the software, for example, from 7.0 to 7.1 or from 6.6 to 6.7. Upgrading to a newer major version, for example, from 6.x to 7.x, must be performed manually on the backup server only.

Updating the server does not result in any loss of settings—the existing configuration will be preserved. There is also no need to update each workstation manually, as once the server has been updated, the endpoints will update automatically from the backup server.


To upgrade the software from an older version, download the previous versions listed below and install them manually on the backup server:
