Appendix B: Licensing the Server

Delta is licensed software, using a physical USB Key or disk based licence, which is locked to the physical hardware of the Delta PC. This Key is supplied by 7thSense.

To license a Delta PC (if not already done by 7thSense):

Install Delta using the setup.exe supplied

Insert the USB Delta Key into USB port.

Microsoft Windows

Run the setupdrv.exe supplied for Blue dongles.

Install the dongle in a USB port – the driver should be found automatically.

An unlicensed Delta system will continue to run, but certain features are disabled, and you won’t be able to save a Delta file.

Note that DeltaGUI does not require a license, only the server, so you can run DeltaGUI from any PC.

Updating a 7thSense Licence

An update code can be obtained from 7thSense to add features remotely through email.

To update the USB licence, from the DeltaServer dialog menu, choose About > Update Licence:

The emailed code should be copied into the Change Code edit box and then press [Make Changes] – any errors will be shown below.

Note that to obtain an update code, you will need to send the Dongle Number and Update Number to 7thSense – these are shown above or in the About > About Server dialog.

Integrator / Reseller Licensing

If your integrator or reseller has provided your licence, they may have employed an additional service regarding licence expiry. In this case, they will email you a code that must be ingested using the DeltaGUI main menu > Wizards > Ingest User Licence:
