Problems with Multigraph on Emoncms on Raspberry Pi

Sorry for yet another question, although I am still beginning with Emoncms. I am having some problems with producing a multigraph in Emoncms on my raspberry Pi server/base station (both Vis and Dashboard).

When selecting Multigraph in Vis I get a different input screen compared to that on Emoncms.org. Instead of 'Select multigraph' in '2) Select options' I get the following, which does not make much sense to me (all other visualisations seem to work OK):

I think I am using the most recent version of Emoncms, but it is the one distributed with the ready-to-go SD card image (downloaded 4th February). I am using Firefox 12.0 (but I see the same in Chrome). Would anyone have any suggestions for what to try?

Thanks

The image is a bit out of date but to bring emoncms up to date is pretty straightforward. In terminal in the /var/www/emoncms folder, run: 

$ git pull origin master

that should then have the new emoncms multigraph interface.

Thanks Trystan. I am new to git so am not so familiar with the syntax and interface. Using the command you suggest gives the following error:

pi@raspberrypi /var/www/emoncms $ git pull origin master
/usr/lib/git-core/git: 1: /usr/lib/git-core/git: Syntax error: ")" unexpected

When you say in terminal do you mean directly on the Pi or can I run it via PuTTY (as I tried to above)?

Just to tie off this thread, I now have everything working, including the newest version of emoncms on the Pi. However, it did take a clean install of the SD card following the detailed instructions, rather than the SD card image. It also seemed to sort out issues I had mirroring data from the Pi to emoncms.org.
