## License Management

You can view a list of all licenses that have been activated on this computer in License management.

Name | Explanation
--- | ---
Product | Name of the licensed function.
Expiration | The license is either valid indefinitely or it expires on a specific date, which is listed in this column.
Quantity | Number of licenses that were purchased for a product.
Device ID | Unique identifier that is determined by MxMC for the used device. Note the device ID and keep it accessible if you should run into any problems during licensing.

#### Activate Licenses

1. Click on Activate licenses to activate licenses. The dialog box used for activating licenses appears.
2. Enter a valid activation ID and establish the number of licenses that will be installed on this computer.
3. Click on if you want to license an additional product. Enter the corresponding activation ID in the new line and enter the number of desired licenses.
4. Click on to delete a line.
5. When you are finished entering all activation IDs, click on Activate.

- Activation successful
  If activation was successful, you can return to License Management or relaunch MxMC for the changes to be applied.
- Activation failed (no Internet connection)
  MxMC connects to the license server for activation. It needs to establish an Internet connection. An error message appears if there is no Internet connection. It will then save an offline request file (*.lic).
  A partner/installation technician can generate a capability response file (*.bin file) using this file. If you have received on, open the Activate licenses window (menu Window > Licenses > Activate licenses) and click on Load capability response file.
  If the capability response file was successfully loaded, you can return to License Management or relaunch MxMC for the changes to be applied.

#### Update

When launching the program, it does not automatically compare the licenses on the computer with the license server. For this reason, you need to click on Update to reload the licenses from the server.

Note: You need administrator rights to activate or update licenses.
