Upgrade Information
Important Information for Upgrading Compass
From previous versions of Newpoint Compass
Figure 3 To Upgrade, select Repair
 
 
Compass clients distributed with older Compass releases (and custom 
clients compiled with toolkits from older releases) can not connect to 
the Compass 4.0 server. 
 
Before you decide to upgrade to the newest version of Compass, 
consider the following: 
 
•
If you upgrade, you will have to recompile all drivers and 
custom clients with the Compass 4.0 Toolkit. 
 
•
If you upgrade, you must upgrade all systems at all sites; you 
cannot upgrade only some of the systems in a network. 
 
•
If you use Mercury units in your system, and you upgrade to 
Compass 4.0, you must also upgrade the Mercury units.
