Upgrade Notes
When upgrading the RMX Manager application, it is recommended to backup the MCU list using
the Export RMX Manager Configuration option. For more details, see Import/Export RMX
Manager Configuration.
When upgrading the RMX Manager from a major version (for example, version 8.7.0) to a
maintenance version of that version (for example, 8.7.0.x), the installation must be performed from
the same MCU (IP address) from which the major version (for example, version 8.7.0) was
installed.
If you are upgrading from another MCU (different IP address), you must first uninstall the RMX
Manager application using Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs.
New RealPresence Collaboration Server Installation Note
When managing the RealPresence Collaboration Server, upgrade/install the latest MCU version and
then install the latest RMX Manager application.

Once the connection to the Collaboration Server unit is established and the Login window is
