15.7 Finding your SureTrack Authorization
Code
When you purchase a software upgrade, or qualifying platform from your Snap-on
Representative, you will receive a SureTrack authorization code. The authorization
code is printed on your sales receipt. Authorization codes are 12 digit alpha-
numeric codes (e.g. 123ABCAP4-US).
Figure 15-22
After obtaining a new software upgrade you will receive a new SureTrack
authorization code. Software upgrades can be installed using the ShopStream
Update Tool program installed on your diagnostic tool.
Each time you purchase a diagnostics software upgrade you will be provided a new
SureTrack authorization code. The authorization code will expire shortly after the
release of the next concurrent software upgrade. To log in with a new authorization
code, see Logging In with new Authorization Code (expired account) on page 188.
15.8 About Upgrade Reminder Messages
As a reminder to keep your software current and retain your access to SureTrack,
software upgrade reminder messages will display periodically on the diagnostic tool
when new software upgrades are available (Figure 15-23). To purchase software
upgrades, or join the software subscription program, see your Snap-on
Representative.
Selecting OK will close the message box until the beginning of the next month when
it will reappear to remind you again. Selecting Snooze 1 Week will close the
message box for approximately one week and then it will re-appear.
