===Latest build distribution download===
 
'''IMPORTANT:''' Before installing Cumulus MX v4.0 for the first time, please study and understand [https://cumulus.hosiene.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=22051 this installation guide]
~ Download [https://github.com/cumulusmx/CumulusMX/releases/download/b4022/CumulusMXDist4022.zip Cumulus MX v4.0.0 build 4022, 11-May-2024]
<br>
~ Download [https://github.com/cumulusmx/CumulusMX/releases/download/b4022b4025/CumulusMXDist4022CumulusMXDist4025.zip Cumulus MX v4.01.01 build 40224025, 1119-MayJune-2024]
 
===Latest MX Source Code===
===Raspberry Pi Image===
 
~ Download 32 bit image: [//{{SERVERNAME}}/Downloads/rpi-CumulusMX-lite-34.281.01.zip Raspberry Pi Image for Cumulus MX 34.281.01 x32]
~ Download 64 bit image: [//{{SERVERNAME}}/Downloads/rpi-CumulusMX-lite-34.281.0_X641_X64.zip Raspberry Pi Image for Cumulus MX 34.281.01 x64]
 
As at April 2022, the image includes Raspberry Pi. O. S. 11 "Bullseye" version of Linux.
# It is of course possible that sometimes the image provided may have issues for you,
#* it is set up so that MX starts running as a service immediately you boot up your Raspberry Pi, rather than letting you first run MX interactively (see [[MX_on_Linux#Running_MX]]);
#* it is produced with a Raspberry Pi model 3, so with other models you may need to replace the Mono software included in image, and consider what updating rates your model can support;
#* it is produced using a GB locale and GB time-zone, so that automatically started MX may not initially be running correctly for your locale (however as you need to restart MX after changing settings you should be okay when MX starts recording data).
 
 
If you are using a later MX release than that stated, check [https://cumulus.hosiene.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=17887 the MX release announcements] for all releases since that stated below to see if the "software libraries" have been upgraded, if they have then the respective utility because it has been compiled with older versions of the respective .dll files will probably not work. (Sometimes the names of new .dll files are different to the names of the old .dll files, so an upgrade of MX done by copying files over an existing installation will leave the old files there, in that case the utility might still work by picking up old names).
 
=== Migrate Data v3 to v4 ===
 
~ The MigrateDatav3to4 ''v1.0.2'' download dated 18 June 2024 [https://github.com/cumulusmx/MigrateData3to4/releases/download/v1.0.2/MigrateData3to4v1.0.2.zip is here].
