Adding or updating a License
The process for adding or updating a license is quite simple:
Please note, if you want to add a license onto a Codemeter dongle, the serial number of it has to start at least with 3-344.... If the serial number of your Codemeter dongle is older, you won't be able to add our license on it.
Create a license update request - Machine locked
To create a license update request file from the container you’d like the new license to be on and send it to us. If you don't see any LightAct containers, please download this file, unzip it and drag & drop LightAct.WibuCmLIF file into CodeMeter Control Center. Then an empty LightAct container should appear which you can use to create the license update request file.
The file has a .WibuCmRaC file extension.
Please note, you need to create a license update request from the container you want our license to be on.
To complete this step, open CodeMeter Control Center and select the desired container. In our case that would be LightAct. With it selected, click on the License Update button.
Select Create lisence request and click Next.
Click Commit to create a .WibuCmRaC file and save it to your machine. You can then send it to us via email at [email protected].
Create a license update request - USB Dongle
To create a license update request file open CodeMeter Control Center and select the desired USB Dongle. In our case that would be CMStick/B 3-7771719. With it selected, click on the License Update button.
Select Create lisence request and click Next.
If you already have a LightAct license and just want to update it, select Extend existing license. If you don’t have one yet, choose Add license of a new vendor and click next.
Type in LightAct's Firm code: 6001083 and click next.
Click Commit to create a .WibuCmRaC file and save it to your machine. You can then send it to us via email at [email protected].
Adding our license to your container
Once we receive the license update request file we will be able to generate a license update file.
The file will have a .WibuCmRaU file extension.
Once you receive the license update file, import it into CodeMeter Control Center. This time, choose Import license update instead.
After successfully finishing this step, the license will be updated or created on your container.
Please don't forget to apply the license in LightAct. The procedure is described the next article.
