Set up a single user license


Here's how to set up a single user license for your copy of infra CONVERT.

The procedure at a glance

A single user license is issued for a PC workstation. It is only valid for this workstation and can not be transferred.

1)

First install infra CONVERT on the PC. The installation file can be downloaded from the download area on our main pages.

Note There are no differences between different functionalities during the installation. Even if an installation is used as a demo version, all functions can be unlocked for them with the appropriate license.

2)

You send the individual registration key generated for this installation together with your contact data by e-mail (A) to your CAQ/MES system provider respectively the service of ELIAS GmbH.

3)

The license file, which you also receive by e-mail (B), is finally downloaded into infra CONVERT.

Note The license server task can be performed by any PC in the network, including a client. However, it is recommended not to use a desktop PC due to the requirement for constant availability.
1) The license service is installed.
2) Make sure that the license service is allowed to use the incoming port. An example of how to enable the port for the license service is described at the bottom of this page. 2) The license service can be accessed from outside.
