Note

Important information for software upgrades:

Upgrading to Charon-HPA 1.1x from an older version requires a license update. Please contact your VAR or Stromasys representative to plan the update.

Additional information for software licenses:
Charon-HPA 1.10 contains the new Sentinel license runtime version 7.63 provided by the license vendor (aksusbd package). The new version contains important updates. However older software licenses are not compatible with the new version. Upgrading to the new version of the runtime software in most cases requires the installation of a new software license (instead of just an update).

Recommendation:

  • If you have a working software license and use license runtime version 2.5.1, do not upgrade this package to version 7.63 included with Charon-HPA 1.10 without preparing to install a new software license.
  • If you have a working software license and use license runtime 7.63 or newer, do not downgrade to the older version included with previous Charon-HPA versions.

Before an upgrade to the new emulator version, contact your VAR or Stromasys representative to discuss the best way to upgrade.
