User-Installable Program Updates

In the usual case, the GEOSYSTEM Data Manager program is capable of updating itself and the laboratory test and boring log programs that it manages; however, if it is blocked from accessing the GEOSYSTEM Software website by a firewall or corporate proxy server, you can manually install updates for your software by following the directions given below.

  1. In order to install these updates you'll need to know where your user-configurable data files are stored. To do this: Start your GEOSYSTEM application, then select "Options" > "Setup General" options, click on "Files" in the left-hand navigation panel, then make a note of what's listed in the top-right "Report, entry and shareable config files path box". This path will be where you need to save the update files.
  2. If you have licensed LOGDRAFT, click on the link below and choose to save the file to the path you noted in Step 1:
    Combined LOGDRAFT Version 5 + Data Manager Update
    If you have not licensed LOGDRAFT, click on the link below and choose to save the file to the path you noted in Step 1:
    Data Manager Update
  3. Next, locate the updates for your licensed laboratory test programs from the list below. For each program that you have licensed, click on the appropriate update and choose to save it to the path you noted in step 1:

    The following download is for version 5 of the named programs. If you have version 4.x, see the "Older Versions" section below.

    Installing this download into a version 4 system will break your installation.

  4. Finally, restart your GEOSYSTEM program. You should see a note indicating that a number of files are being extracted: if you see this, your update(s) are being installed.
