Beta update

(1/2) > >>

Kurt Adv:
I bought the Hex 911 Professional a while back, why do I need to do Beta updates every three months? This is extremely frustrating when I need to use, don't have internet access, and the unit will not let me diagnose a bike.....It keeps asking me if I want to look for the new Beta update, when I cancel it just closes the program.....I don't  want to have to look for Beta updates, I want to plug this unit in to a bike, and it must diagnose.....I don't need the latest update to diagnose a 2004 bike....

Then don't run the beta.  Grab the downloader utility from http://www.hexcode.co.za/products/gs-911/downloads and use it to grab the latest released version, 1411.2.  See http://www.hexcode.co.za/release-version-1411-is-now-available

AFAIK running the Beta version is completely optional.  If you don't need a feature that is not in the Beta version don't run the Beta version.

Kurt Adv:
Thanks, did the download, but it still does the same, tells me the application has expired, then shuts the program.

marchyman:
I think the name of the application contains Beta if it is a beta version.

I just tried downloading the current version.   The downloader read my device and game me these three choices.  I picked the one in the middle.  That downloaded a file named GS-911-1411.2.exe.



I clicked on the GS-911-1411.2.exe file, said run, clicked the license check box, etc.  After finishing the installation (I did not check the box to say run the program) I had a the GS-911 shortcut on my desktop.



When I double clicked on the shortcut I got this window:



I did a test interface and then clicked the OK button.  That gave me the standard app starting window.   Note the version:



So how does what I did compare to what you did?  What are the differences?

smithster:
Thanks for that post!
If it wasn't for reading that information I was just about to see how far I could throw the bl**dy GS-911 interface into the bl**dy bush!
Many thanks!
