1. Go to www.milestonesys.com.

2. Click the Login link, select Software registration, and log in to the Software Registration

Service Center.

Tip: If you do not have an account yet, click the New to the system? link, complete the

registration process, and then log in.

3. When logged in, you will see a list of your currently registered Software License Codes

(SLCs).

Tip: If you have not yet registered the Software License Code for your XProtect Central

installation, do so by clicking the Add SLC link, and then following the instructions. When
you reach the confirmation page, click the Current SLCs link to return to the list of your

currently registered Software License Codes.

4. The listed Software License Codes are clickable. Click the one representing your XProtect

Central installation. You will now see a page with detailed information about the Software

License Code for your XProtect Central installation.

5. Click the Add new MAC link, and specify the MAC address of the computer on which the

XProtect Central Server software is installed.

Tip: A MAC address is a 12-character hexadecimal number uniquely identifying each device

on a network. To find the MAC address of a computer, open a command prompt window,

and type ipconfig -all, then press RETURN. The 12-character hexadecimal Physical Address

(example: 00-11-ab-00-11-ab) is the MAC address.

Also specify a description of the computer on which the XProtect Central Server software is

installed; this will help you identify it if you later want to edit your Software License Code
details.

6. When ready, click the Submit button. When asked whether you want to add the MAC

address to the Software License Code, click the Yes button. You will now see a confirmation

page.

7. On the confirmation page, click the Get all keys via email link. When you click the link, the

XProtect Central license key will be sent to the e-mail address you specified in your

Software Registration Service Center login.

8. When you receive the e-mail, look for the 16-character Device license key. This is your

XProtect Central license key.
