We are testing LAS version 7.1.1 while still running LAS 7.0 Beta on our development server. We installed Ferret 6.6.2 for the 7.1.1 version but noticed that we get the following error when we request a time series for a dataset from LAS 7.0 Beta using
Ferret 6.6.2:
STOP -script mode, ERROR RUNNING SCRIPT

If either Ferret 6.1 or 6.5 is used with LAS 7.0 Beta, the time series plot is generated correctly. Is this a known issue? I would prefer to only use one Ferret version for all the LAS installations if possible.
