How to upgrade to the latest version
Taro Software recommends you keep your
installation of IsItUp updated to the latest version. This insures you have the latest bug fixes
and product updates. We frequently update
IsItUp as we are always adding new features.
Generally, there are two minor updates and one major update per
month. It is easy to update your system
and it takes only a few steps. We
suggest you review the News section of our web site to check on the latest
features at http://www.tarosoft.com/news.htm
To quickly get started, first:

1. Before you run the install
package, we strongly recommend that you make a complete backup of your IsItUp
installation. IsItUp is usually
installed at C:\Program Files\Taro Software Inc\IsItUp,
however, you can install it wherever you like.
2. Run the install package. The install package will detect that IsItUp
is already installed and offer to remove or upgrade as shown below. Take the upgrade option.
3. That’s it. Your upgrade is complete. The first time IsItUp runs, it will
automatically upgrade your device file (*.dev) if
necessary. Occasionally, you will get
error messages regarding your event log in the lower right window of IsItUp as
show below. This should not happen when
upgrading from 7.26 or above.
4. This problem can easily be
corrected. However it will require you
to create a new Event Log. This means
that the Up Time/Down Time, Event Log, and Graphic reports will be restarted
from the time you create the new Event Log and your history will be erased. If
you made a backup of your old installation, you can still gain access to the
old reports by running IsItUp.exe from the backup directory. In order to create
a new Event Log, select Setup/System Parameters from the main menu. Then select the Event Log tab. It will look as follows:
5. Just click on the “Create”
button to create a new Event Log.
