Viewing a License Key
Measurement personalities purchased with your instrument have been installed
and activated at the factory before shipment. The instrument requires a License
Key unique to every measurement personality purchased. The license key is a
hexadecimal number specific to your measurement personality, instrument serial
number and host ID. It enables you to install, or reactivate that particular
personality.
Use the following procedure to display the license key unique to your personality
option that is already installed in your PSA:
Press
System, More, More, Licensing, Show License. The System,
Personality key displays the personalities loaded, version information, and
whether the personality is licensed.
NOTE You will want to keep a copy of your license key in a secure location. Press
System, More, then Licensing, Show License, and print out a copy of the display that
shows the license numbers. If you should lose your license key, call your nearest
Agilent Technologies service or sales office for assistance.
