Register Automatically via the Internet

Introduction

In this topic, you will learn how to set up BobCAD-CAM as a fully registered and licensed product. To run the software as a licensed version, use the registration wizard to register the software using the license ID and Password provided to you in the invoice for your product. How this is accomplished varies slightly based on the method you use. In this topic, we will discuss how to use the Register Automatically via the Internet option.

1) Turn on BobCAD-CAM

1. To open the software, double-click the BobCAD-CAM icon on the desktop, or in the Start menu, click Programs and select BobCAD-CAM .
   
   The Unregistered dialog box appears and you are prompted with three choices:
   
   

• Run software in Demo Mode - activates all modules of the software for a 30 day period. Code output is limited to headers and end blocks only.
• Register automatically via the internet - walks you through licensing a network, or node locked license over the internet.
• Register manually via email - walks you through licensing a network, or node locked license through a separate computer with internet connection. This method utilizes email and a USB Flash Drive to transfer the licensing file between the station to be licensed and the station with an internet connection.
  

2) Register Automatically via the Internet

 

1. Select Register automatically via the Internet, and click Next>>.
   
   The Online Activation dialog box appears.
   
   

2. Enter your License ID and Password and click Next>>.
   

 

Note: If a network license is detected, the Network Connection Info dialog box appears and you are prompted to enter the Hostname and Port Number set up by your I.T. Department.

 

3. The License Status dialog box appears.
   
   The software is now registered.
   

 

Note: If an error occurred during the Online Activation, please contact BobCAD-CAM Registration Department by phone at (727) 442-3554.
