McIDAS-X
Fastrack Version 2007a
Software and Instructions
All changes in McIDAS-X 2007a have been tested by the SSEC MUG team; however,
a complete system test has not been performed. Therefore, this version may
not be as stable as a fully-supported upgrade and we recommend that you do
NOT install it on a mission-critical workstation.
McIDAS-X 2007a is not supported by the MUG as it is still being evaluated.
However, it is likely that some or all of its changes will be included in a
future McIDAS-X upgrade. If you elect to install 2007a, we ask that you notify
the McIDAS Help Desk if you
encounter any bugs. Please be sure to mention that you are running version
2007a.
Also note that if you plan to upgrade to 2007a from a version earlier than
2007 (e.g., 2006), you must first read and perform the required actions in
the document titled McIDAS-X Version 2007 Upgrade Procedure,
May 2007(pdf) that was included in your site's May 2007 upgrade package.
Before installing Fastrack version 2007a, make sure you view the composite
list of Fastrack Software Changes. You might
want to print or download the file for future reference.
