Using the Hardware License Key

After installing BIMcloud Manager, you should restart your computer before setting up the protection key. The hardware key must be accessible by the BIMcloud Manager. To ensure this, use one of the following methods:

Connect the key to the BIMcloud Manager computer's USB port.

Connect the key to a different computer and install a CodeMeter Server on it, which will provide access to the license for the BIMcloud Manager computer.

Notes:

This CodeMeter Server can be the same one already used by the other GRAPHISOFT products in the office.

Whenever CodeMeter is updated on your computer, you must restart BIMcloud Manager and BIMcloud Server. Failure to do so may affect backup/snapshot creation.

Programming the Hardware License Key

CodeMeter hardware protection keys for GRAPHISOFT BIMcloud Solution can be remotely programmed via http://www.graphisoft.com/downloads/licensing.

If you have recently purchased the GRAPHISOFT BIMcloud Solution, you will receive an empty CodeMeter key that you must “load” through the licensing site.
