Upgrading to a Full Version
If you want to upgrade your trial version to a full version, you can easily do so at any time during
or after the 30-day trial period.
When upgrading, you do not need to install the full version from scratch; you can simply upgrade
your existing trial version to a full version the following way:
Purchase a license for a full version of XProtect Basis+ from your Milestone vendor. A list of
vendors in all parts of the world is available on www.milestonesys.com.
When you purchase a license for a full version, you will receive a Software License Code (SLC).
You will use this SLC when upgrading. Your Milestone vendor may send you the SLC in an e-
mail. Alternatively, they may provide you with a DVD with the full version; in which case the
SLC will be printed on the enclosed product license sheet.
Open XProtect Basis+’s Administrator application. If the 30-day trial period has expired, you
will see a message informing you that you cannot use the trial version anymore. However, you
can still open the Administrator application in order to upgrade; just click OK when you see the
message.
Click the
icon in the top left corner of the
Administrator application window, then select About
Adm… from the menu that appears:
Type the Software License Code (SLC) for your full
version and click OK.
A message will inform you that you must restart the Administrator application in order for the
change to take effect. Simply click the message’s OK button.
Close the Administrator application by clicking the Exit button.
When you open the Administrator application again, you will be working with your full version.
Getting Device License Keys
Note that for a full version, you must get a Device License Key (DLK) for each camera and/or video
encoder used on your system. The DLKs allow you to run the cameras and/or video encoders with
your full version. If you have not received the necessary DLKs from your Milestone vendor, do the
following to get DLKs:
Go to the Milestone website, www.milestonesys.com, and click the Software Registration link.
Log in to the online registration system. If you do not have a login, click the New To The
System? link, and follow the instructions. When ready, log in using the registered e-mail
address and password.
Tip: The DLKs will be e-mailed to the e-mail address specified in your login, so it is a good
idea to use a single e-mail account for all persons who should be able to retrieve DLKs.
If you have not yet registered your Software License Code (SLC) on the online registration
system, do so by clicking the Add SLC link and completing the SLC registration steps before
proceeding.
