Beta Versions

MotoHawk Beta versions

New versions

• MotoHawk 2019a Beta4 for MATLAB 9.2 (2017a) to 9.6 (2019a)
• MotoHawk 2017b Beta3 for MATLAB 8.6 (2015b) to 9.3 (2017b)

Please be sure to use Add/Remove Programs to uninstall the previous MT and MSR files. The latest MotoServerRuntime releases install just a little differently than previous releases.

To install MT/MSR 8.13.7.120, the MotoTune developer team recommends:

1. Exit all open MotoTune (and MATLAB / MotoHawk) sessions.

2. Using Windows Task Manager, check for any "mnfeature.exe" processes running; if so, kill with "End Process".

3. Using Windows Add / Remove Programs, uninstall: MotoTune

4. Using Windows Add / Remove Programs, uninstall: MotoServerRuntime

5. Delete folder "C:\Program Files\Common Files\MotoTron\Server\"

• (this deletes files "mnfeature.exe" and "mnfeatureps.dll")

6. Unzip the contents of the respective new installer zipfiles into a temporary directory.

• (MotoServerRuntime now has a helper folder "ISSetupPrerequisites" that must be in the same folder as the installer .EXE file when you run it.)

7. Install: MotoServerRuntime (as administrator, on Windows Vista and Windows 7 machines)

8. Install: MotoTune (as administrator, on Windows Vista and Windows 7 machines)

• If you have been using GCC in earlier MotoHawk releases, you will need to change your GCC installation for MotoHawk 2009b Beta 3 and subsequent releases.
• For customers using MotoHawk Custom Security blocks, you must use version 1.0.4 (or newer) of your security block for MotoHawk 2009b Beta 3 and subsequent releases.

MotoHawk releases require a valid MotoHawk license to do a code-generation build. You can verify the licensing in your silver MotoTron USB licensing token (dongle) using the MotoTron License Viewer (Start, All Programs, MotoTools, MotoTron License Viewer). "MotoHawk (v5.0)" or "MotoHawk (20xxa/b)" is required to use MotoHawk 20xxa/b releases. To use MotoHawk 20xxa/b releases, most users will need to have MotoHawk 20xxa/b permissions added to their license tokens, and may also need to update their software maintenance agreements.
