Hello, I received your inquiry about the system level installer for your lab at Kansas. Can I ask a few questions? Are you running your own EDEX system or plan on connecting to Unidata's public EDEX? We do have a newer version, technically in beta, but I might suggest using that installer instead. Below is the form for that installer: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfQ0ZBf-zq-S50nXV1R3spa6nEnZ7VTEHO8r1iW604QF-vHbA/viewform?usp=sf_link Otherwise here is the direct link: https://downloads.unidata.ucar.edu/awips2/23.4.1/windows/awips-cave-23.4.1-0.3-admin.msi As mentioned in the beta instructions (https://unidata.github.io/awips2/install/install-cave-beta-v23/#edex-connection) you will connect to our beta EDEX at edex-beta.unidata.ucar.edu Thanks, Tiffany Meyer AWIPS Lead Software Engineer NSF Unidata If you're interested, please feel free to fill out a survey about the support you receive: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeDIkdk8qUMgq8ZdM4jhP-ubJPUOr-mJMQgxInwoAWoV5QcOw/viewform
