Which version am I running?
You can find out which version and build of Pulsonix you are using by looking at the About box in the Pulsonix program from the Help menu.
How to upgrade
The current release of Pulsonix is Version 13.0. If you are using Version 12.5 or earlier and want to update, download the Full Pulsonix 13.0 Installer below. You will also require a new license.
If you already have Version 13.0, use the Full Pulsonix 13.0 Installer below to install the latest patch (build 9). Note, there is no actual 'patch' provided now.
If you have Version 12.5 and wish to continue using it, use the 12.5 Software Updates below to install the latest patch (build 9452).
Pulsonix 13.0 Installer
Licensing
If you are installing 13.0 to replace an existing licensed copy of 12.5 or earlier, please contact us or your local sales office or distributor for a new license file before installation.
Download for Full Product and Updates
The product and current update use the same download. There is no separate installer for a service patch.
Updates ('Patches' or 'Service Packs') are provided for customers with a current maintenance contract.
We strongly recommend that you keep your software up-to-date by installing every update that is issued so that you take advantage of all the latest fixes for critical issues.
Pulsonix Vault 13.0
Pulsonix Vault Server
The Pulsonix Vault Server provides data management services for Pulsonix applications.
If you write design or library data to the vault using version 13.0 then that
data will not be accessible from version 12.5 or earlier.
Download and install this Vault Admin package. This provides you access to the Vault Server Setup program, the Vault Admin application and the VAdmin command-line backup tool.
We release a new version of the Vault Admin package with each major release of Pulsonix. If you are already using the Vault you will not need to install or update the underlying Vault server (database) itself, although you can still install the latest Vault Admin package to take advantage of any new features or performance improvements in the admin tools.
It is highly recommended that you use the new Vault for Version 13.0, this will enable you to access the new features available and will provide a new Postgre driver and new, more secure, Postgres database.

Network License Server 13.0
Using NLS
The License Server for V13.0 is not required if you already have the License Server installed for V12.5 as this will run both versions.
However, we recommend that you update NLS to the latest version so that you may benefit from any fixes or service patches that we may provide.
The Pulsonix Network License Server provides 'floating' license capability for your Pulsonix application users. One NLS installation can support multiple versions of the Pulsonix application.
The Pulsonix floating license server (NLS) installation program (not the NLS program itself) requires .NET Framework 4.8 if you are running the pre-2019 Server or Windows 10 build 901.
