Universal Updater Help

About Universal Updater

The Universal Updater app is installed with supported Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence software applications. You can use this app to keep your Hexagon products up to date, receive news from HxGN TV, and launch Hexagon products.

Important

You or your IT department must provide this support for Universal Updater to function properly:

Access to TCP/IP and UDP, ports 80 and 8089 (The computer with Internet connection needs to open ports 80 and 8089). The software uses Port 80 for all update traffic and port 8089 for real-time web traffic (SignalR).

Access to these servers:

Offline Support

In your organization, even computers that are not connected to the Internet can also receive updates through this app. This requires that someone with Internet access in your organization defines some advanced settings to share their cached download location and offline catalog with others.
