Tip

Access to the license server is now set. The current configuration works as follows:

The system will look locally for a compatible license. In the event that it does not find it, it will look on the network for the presence of a license server.
The license access account is decremented by 1 for each access to the license per machine. Once the license is acquired, there is no limit to the amount of session of Robotmaster the user can run on the given machine. (Same as what you are currently accustomed to with Robotmaster and Mastercam.)

Sometimes, you will also need to grant license access permissions to each of the client computers.

This can be done via selecting Server/License Access Permissions from the Configuration menu.

After that, add client PCs to the Basic Mode Configuration, then apply and restart the service:

...

The Avanced Section allows to control also which users or machines can access the license on the network server.
