The NaviSuite Licence Activator
The NaviSuite Licence Activator is used to activate a EIVA software package by entering a 9-digit licence activation code.
EIVA software packages have the Licence Activator included under the Help tab. It starts automatically when no licence is available.
Older software packages like NaviPac 3.10 don't have the LIcence Activator included and you need download it from the EIVA download site, https://download.eiva.com/ and install it.
The latest version is fetched by simply closing and reopening it once.
It has six UI elements that are described below.
- Enter licence key
Enter the 9-digit licence activation key that you bought from the My EIVA self-service portal to activate the licence on your local computer as shown below:
- Licence server
Use this option if you purchased an EIVA hardware network dongle, or you are running a EIVA Licence Server.
- Add a licence file
Use when you want to load eg an emergency softdongle.txt that you got from the EIVA Support team or a *.licence file.
Note that a softdongle.txt file does not need to be loaded but can also be copied to the C:/EIVA/ folder to activate the software package.
