ERDAS Net Licensing

Licensing your new copy of ERDAS IMAGINE 2010, LPS 2010 or ERDAS ER Mapper 2010 is easy! (This also applies to IMAGINE 9.3, LPS 9.3 and ER Mapper 7.2, and licenses for 2010 are backwardly compatible with these versions.)

All you need to do is install the software from the DVD supplied to you. A top tip here is to only install the products for which you are licensed - you can select these during the installation process. The licensing tools are automatically installed with any install of the software; if you're running a license server there's a separate option to just install the license tools.

Once the licensing tools are installed on your choice of license server (note: if you are using a stand alone PC your PC is your license server), then you'll need to find your System ID. To do this, go to Start > ERDAS > ERDAS-Net Licensing Tools > Show System ID.

imageYou should get something like this:

 

Choose a connection that will remain constant; Local Area Connection is probably the one you want unless you've got a good reason. Note to laptop users - make sure your laptop is out of the docking station when you do this.

Once you've selected your ID, you'll need to send it to us here at Infoterra along with:

  • Your name
  • Your company
  • Your ERDAS Customer number (this is on the letter that accompanied the DVD)
  • What software you would like licensed for this system

Send this to us at erdas-support@infoterra-global.com, and that should be that.

Any queries, just get in touch.

Oh, and there's a bunch of useful FAQs over at the ERDAS site ...
