You can run your Cloud license on another computer. For example if you have a desktop and a laptop you can run the software on both machines. However, you MUST Release your license from the current machine before activating it on the second machine. An active internet connection is required.
Here are the steps:
1.Open the software and select License... from the CAM Main Menu. The License dialog will then display.
2.To release your license to run on another machine, select one of these options from the License dialog:
Release License transfer to another machine
This immediately contacts our license server and releases the license. The following message will be displayed:
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Your cloud license automatically resets every 8 hours. If you are running the license on more than one computer and forget to release your license, just wait 8 hours and it will release automatically. Likewise, if your computer fails or becomes inoperable, your license will release automatically after 8 hours.
