Note

  • If you do not know the location of the Floating License File (*.FLF) contact your License Administrator.
  • Do not change any Network Connection on your Computer during the registration process. The CID encodes various parameters including network adapter information. After product activation, the network adapter may change as it is the case on portable Notebooks with various network connections.
  • The CID encodes several computer parameters including a time information. Therefore the CID changes daily. However you may install a LIC any time, provided that the same Network Connection is active.
  • For computers with no Internet connection visit the web page http://www.keil.com/license/floating.htm (on a different computer) and enter the product information manually. The Floating License ID (FLI) and Computer ID Number (CID) must be obtained from the computer that should run the license. In the µVision dialog File - License Management... - Floating- User License click Add LIC to obtain this information.
