How do I activate my Hololight Space cloud license?

Install, configure and activate your Hololight Space cloud license


Cloud-based licensing

In order to use the full version of Hololight Space you need to install, configure, and activate the license. You can then deactivate your license by releasing it. If you received a license file from Hololight make sure your PC is connected to the internet.

Installing the License File

  1. Open Hololight Space.
  2. On the menu on the left, select Licensing.
  3. On the Hololight Space License panel, scroll down to Select New License File and select the browse button.
  4. Browse to the folder where you saved your license file. Select it and open it. Hololight Space will then automatically move the file to the correct location.
  5. Alternatively, manually place the .lic file in the following directory:
  6. C:\Users\user1\3d objects\Hololight Space\Licensing

Configuration

Before activating the license you need to select a license type on the Hololight Space License panel under License Type. Different license types have different advantages, allowing you to flexibly and easily control access to the license as best fits your needs.

When to use a roaming license

A roaming license lets you use Hololight Space for up to 13 days without needing to connect to the internet. After 13 days the machine running Hololight Space needs to reactivate the license while connected to the internet. You can then use Hololight Space with your license for another 13 days before having to repeat the activation.

When to use a floating license

A floating license lets you use Hololight Space as long as your license is valid. However, your machine always needs to stay connected to the internet in order to use Hololight Space with this type of license.


Activate your license

Once you’ve installed your license file and chosen your license type, you can activate your license. If a valid license already exists in the correct folder, Hololight Space will activate the license automatically.

  1. To activate your license select the Activate button.
  2. If the activation is successful, a green “Server Reachable” icon will appear. You can now use Hololight Space with your License.

Release your license

Sometimes it is necessary to release a license. You might want to change the license type before reactivating or maybe allow someone else to use the license.

  1. To the release a license, select the Release button on the Hololight Space License panel.
  2. When the green “Server Reachable” icon disappears, the license is free.
