When using the standard installation directory, the installation of the update is done on top of the current program version. This will not delete user generated files (program files or the license). However, it will update the standard configuration files in turn erase user changes made to those files. To prevent this rename the old installation e.g. to c:\CPRogold
prior to running the installer.

The 'gripper' command since is used to operate the gripper as of V08. This allows the use of more complex grippers with servo-drives and several joints. The previous procedure using the digital outputs 11 and 12 is obsolete. Existing programs have to be adapted.

Installation
Installation has to be done in C:\CPRog. CPRog requires a specific DirectX version and .net framework 3.5 or higher. If an old CPRog installation is updated no changes to Directx or .net Framework are necessary. If the installation is installed for the first time, the following dependencies have to be installed:
Prerequisites
- Directx 9.0c (exactly this version) A newer version might already be installed. However, it is no problem to install two versions in parallel.
- .net Framework: 3.5 or higher https://www.microsoft.com/net/download/Windows/run
If you install CPRog from the CD supplied with your control electronics, DirectX9.0c and .net Framework are installed directly from the CD. If the installer starts without CD, it tries to download the dependencies from the internet. This requires a working internet connection.
