Upgrading from Delta 5.0 and Delta 5.5 Firstly, if you have a compatible data collection interface (all excepting the old four channel ISA card) you can upgrade at no charge, simply download and install Delta 5.5 from Downloads and start (there are installation notes below). If you have an old interface that Delta 5.5 doesn't support on the operating system you wish to use, you can return your Delta interface and pay AU$1250.00 (approx US$1000.00) plus freight (and GST if you are purchasing from within Australia) to upgrade to a replacement DataCenter4000 usb/serial data station. Delta 5.5 does not support all interfaces on all of the supported operating systems. The matrix below illustrates the supported combinations.
* There are a number of versions of Windows 98. The earlier versions cannot be used reliably with USB interfaces. After you install Delta 5.5 and start it the first time you will be asked to Choose a New Signal Source. Choose the style of interface you are using from the drop down list and click OK. Successive dialogs will prompt you for the additional information required for the type of interface you selected.
Changes between Delta 5.0 and Delta 5.5 During development we have taken the opportunity to update the online help with explanations that were either missing, or not practical with the old help system ... leading we hope to a more rewarding experience to the Delta user. While we had a mandate to retain as much of the Delta 5.0 look and feel as possible, there were occasions when we just couldn't bring ourselves to follow the old thinking ... the old thinking was just unintuitive, so we re-implemented those features in a manner more in line with the way a user would think (we hope). Along the way, we couldn't help but add extra color and pizzazz when the opportunity arose. So, specifics ...
