Check and update dongles (LPT/USB)

After a dongle (LPT/USB) is connected to the computer, the actual license information is showed
on the tabsheet dongle. You can use this option to check the license information of dongles.
The field Client ID and Dongle Nr. contains the registration data of the connected dongle.
Adjustment of the license information of the dongle can be done in two ways:
-

Update through the internet

Update with a file

Update through the Internet

By selecting the tabsheet Web the
program starts searching the internet
for new license information for the
connected dongle. As soon as the
license information is available the
information is displayed. When a
message appears No matching file
found there could be two possible
causes:
- A dongle is connected of
which the registration data
Client ID and Dongle Nr.
doesnt correspond to the
data of the internet (see
tabsheet Web);
- There is no new license file
available.
New available modules are displayed
with a yellow background, these will
be added to the dongle. Discontinued
modules are displayed as strike out
and will be removed from the dongle.
By using the button update dongle
the data is saved in the connected
dongle and closed with the message

Now the dongle is ready for use.

information by mail or by e-mail as an attachment.
Update with file
By selecting the tabsheet file you can browse to the location of a license file. You may have
received this file by mail or by e-mail as an attachment. When a message appears No matching

correspond to the data of the license file.
