Activate licenses after grace period
If you have decided to use manual license activation and you have forgotten to activate a license within the
grace period (hardware device, Milestone Interconnect camera, door licenses, or others), the device using that
license becomes unavailable and cannot send data to the surveillance system
Even if a license’s grace period has expired, the device configuration and settings you have made are saved
and used when the license is activated.
To enable the unavailable devices again, you activate the licenses manually in your preferred way. For more
information, see Activate licenses offline on page 116 or Activate licenses online on page 116.
Get additional licenses
If you want to add or if you have already added more hardware devices, Milestone Interconnect systems,
doors or other elements than you currently have licenses for, you must buy additional licenses to enable them
to send data to your system:
l
To get additional licenses for your system, contact your XProtect product reseller
If you have bought new licenses to your existing surveillance system version:
l
Simply activate your licenses manually to get access to the new licenses. For more information, see
Activate licenses online on page 116 or Activate licenses offline on page 116.
If you have bought new licenses and an upgraded surveillance system version:
l
You receive an updated software license file (.lic) (see Licenses (explained) on page 108) with the new
licenses and the new version. You must use the new software license file during the installation of the
new version. For more information, see Upgrade requirements on page 355
Change the Software License Code
If you run an installation on a temporary Software License Code (SLC) or if you have upgraded to a more
advanced XProtect product, you can change your SLC to a permanent or more advanced SLC. You can change
your SLC without any un- or reinstallation actions when you have received your new software license file.
You can do this locally on the management server or remotely from Management Client.
