License Keys - Installation

All Tailor Made Software applications and software needs a license keys to go from trial mode to production mode. Depending on software type, the license key checks different specifics.

CADViewer: The Domain or URL of the installed component in application or web-page.
All CAD Converters and Data Extractors: The MAC/IP of the install server of the CAD Converter/Extractor.

CADViewer - Obtaining Domain/ServerUrl

The easiest way is to simply identify the URL of the application or web-page in which CADViewer is running.

CAD Converters & DATA Extractors - Obtaining IP/MAC

Our CAD Converters are: AutoXchange AX2023 and DwgMerge 2023.
Our DATA Extractors are: LinkList 2023 and DwgList 2023.

For all of these software packages, the license key need to contain either the MAC or IP of the install server.

1) If on Linux run: $ifconfig to get the general system MAC/IP information.
2) If on Windows run: >ipconfig to get the general system MAC/IP information.

As an alternative for AutoXchange AX2023:

3) Inside the install folder of AX2023 run: >AX2023_yy_nn_vv -verify and it will list the main MAC/IP as read into AutoXchange.
4) Also, inside the install folder of AX2023 (/converters/ax2023/linux or /converters/ax2023/windows) locate the test file: Test01.dwg . Use AX2023 with this dwg file to run a command line from this folder: >AX2023_yy_nn_vv -i=Test01.dwg -o=Test01.svg -f=svg -model -trace. This will list all IP/MAC that AutoXchange is reading in.

NOTE: Use this information to obtain your license keys from Tailor Made Software.
