Hi,

2.13-beta7 doesn't exists but 2.13-beta6 exists.

Regarding the official documentation, you just need to do download and install the new debian package. I think that it's the same with a beta release.

Note that I do not test the below steps.

1. Stop RPi-Monitor

sudo systemctl stop rpimonitor

2. Copy the configuration or backup on another device (the 2nd is better)

mkdir /home/rpimonitor-2.12r0.bak
cp -a --parents /usr/share/rpimonitor /home/rpimonitor-2.12r0.bak
cp -a --parents /var/lib/rpimonitor /home/rpimonitor-2.12r0.bak
cp -a --parents /etc/rpimonitor /home/rpimonitor-2.12r0.bak

3. Download and install the latest dev release

wget https://github.com/XavierBerger/RPi-Monitor-deb/raw/develop/packages/rpimonitor_latest.deb
sudo dpkg -i rpimonitor_latest.deb

4. Start RPi-Monitor sudo systemctl start rpimonitor
5. Check your version rpimonitord -V
6. Test that nothing was broken during the upgrade
7. If everything is okay, comment the lines in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/rpimonitor.list to avoid future APT conflicts with your manually upgrade version.
