SDI POES Version 2005jun01
Software and Instructions
SDI POES version 2005jun01 contains updates to the POES ingestor to include
support of the NOAA-18 satellite (launched in May 2005). See the SDI
POES Software Changes page
to see the list of changes for all versions of SDI POES available on the McIDAS
Website.
Important Note: Beginning with this 2005jun01 version, the
SDI installation opens only port 112 (ports 500 and 503 are no longer opened).
Therefore, 2005jun01 SDI POES servers will respond only to data requests from
clients running McIDAS-X version 2005 or 2004 (and also 2003 if the
client’s MCCOMPRESS environment
variable is set to "gzip"). Thus, commands sent to server port 500 or 503 from
clients running older versions will fail on the client (eventually timeout
because of no response). See the McIDAS-X
Version 2005 Upgrade Procedure for more information.
You can obtain the SDI POES version 2005jun01 files through this webpage
if you purchased MUG support for your SDI POES system or have been contacted
and been given approval by SSEC. You will be prompted for your site's login
and password when you attempt to download the installation files. If you do
not know the login and password, ask your site coordinator. If you know the
login and password and still have a problem obtaining these files via the web,
ask your site coordinator to contact the McIDAS Help Desk by
e-mail or by phone at (608) 262-2455.
