We are excited to announce a new build of Eaglesoft 17!

If you have not already installed the Eaglesoft 17 update CD you will not need to follow the instructions as
outlined below. PLEASE WATCH FOR a new Eaglesoft 17 CD and discard the older installation CD.
If you have already installed Eaglesoft 17, within the next few weeks, we will be using the Patterson Auto Update (PAU) service to deliver the latest version of Eaglesoft 17 directly to your computer. This version contains several vital updates and it is recommended that you complete this installation on all of your Eaglesoft computers.

The new PAU feature in Eaglesoft 17 will automatically detect that there is an update waiting for you, (If you have changed the default preferences of the Patterson Auto Update, you may have to manually check for updates by going to Start | All Programs | Patterson Companies | Patterson Auto Update.) Once the file has been detected by your daily check for updates in PAU, the Patterson Auto Update will indicate that an update is waiting. Remember, all computers, including your server, must be updated at the same time and always, make a backup prior to updating.

Downloading Installation Instructions:
All installation documents will be downloaded to the one machine that has been configured as your PAU portal machine. To determine which machine is configured as the portal, go to Start | All Programs | Patterson Companies | Patterson Auto Update, select the Configuration and then Base tabs. Your portal machine will be the one that has the Portal radio button selected. To access the attached instructions, right-click on Start | Open Windows Explorer. Locate the C: drive. Locate the Patterson Downloads folder and double-click to open. Once in the Patterson Downloads folder, double-click to open the folder ES 17.00.49 Docs_17.00.49. Inside this folder, you will find a file named Documentation. This file contains additional information to help you download and install Eaglesoft 17.

Installing the Update:
In the PAU window, select the Download Software button. Once you have downloaded the software the
button will change to an Install Software button. Please wait to perform the installation until you have read the installation instructions as directed above. Install all Eaglesoft machines, including your server. Please feel free to contact our Support department at ptc.support@eaglesoft.net or 1-800-475-5036 with any questions.
