Requesting a license
Software licenses are unique to the system for which they are purchased. They cannot
be used on any other system. This requires that you provide a generated unique ID for
the desired system to Grass Valley, which is then used to create your unique license.
1. Log on to the device that you want to license.
You must log in as a Windows administrator with a local account, not a domain
account.
2. Open the License Request Wizard.
Find the License Request Wizard shortcut on the Windows desktop.
The License Request Wizard displays.
3. Read the on-screen instructions, then click Next.
The Customer dialog box displays.
4. Enter the information requested on this page then click Next.
You must provide a valid email address to receive your license file.
The Sales Number dialog box displays.
5. Enter the Sales Order Number in the field then click Next.
Typically the Sales Order Number is found on the Software License sheet that
you received with your Grass Valley product.
The Summary dialog box displays.
6. Review the License Request information and click Finish.
A License Request text file, License_Request_<SalesNumber>.txt, is generated
and saved to the Windows Desktop.
NOTE: If you are requesting licenses for more than one application, be sure
to modify the name of the first License Request text file before saving it to
your desktop. (In Notepad, use the Save As command.) Otherwise, the second
License Request text file will overwrite it.
