mXrap interface upgrade

We have started rolling out a new version of the mXrap software and root folder. Software versions 5.9 and above include a few interface changes. The new version is available on the download site but DO NOT download it until someone from the mXrap team has upgraded your root folder. Several root folder changes need to be made simultaneously with the software upgrade. We will be in touch soon to arrange the upgrade (if we haven't already).

What's the difference between updating the mXrap software and updating the root folder?

Some things you see in mXrap are properties of the software, while other things are properties of the root folder.

We often use the software Excel as an analogy. Excel has many built-in capabilities with endless possibilities for creating specific calculations. The software has powerful capabilities, but without a user constructing the spreadsheet, the power and value are not fully utilised. An Excel user can set up a spreadsheet which, with the required inputs, will provide you with results. This user can then provide you with that spreadsheet, which you can then use to perform the same calculations with other inputs.
