License Types

Top  Previous  Next

 

There are four licensing "modes' that the Structural Engineering Library can operate in:
 

Evaluation Mode

 

When you first install and start the software it will operate in "Evaluation" mode. This will last for 45 days and allow you complete access to all parts of the software...no restrictions are placed. Every 10 minutes a window will pop-up to remind you that you are using the "Evaluation Version" and your printouts will have an "Evaluation Version, Not for Commercial Use" watermark. The 45 days can be extended by calling ENERCALC to request additional time. Changing the computers date will force the evaluation time to expire.

 

Licensed Mode

 

After you have entered your product Control Code and done an activation the product will be completely operational. This required purchasing a software license. Your user registration number and licensee name will appear on all printouts and you will see a "Maintenance Expiration Date" on the licensing screen.

 

Academic Mode

 

This is a special version/mode for students.  Each time an Academic license is granted an expiration date is set after which time the software stops operating. In addition the printouts have a watermark stating that it is a educational version and the students name and registration number is printed.

 

Plan Check Mode

 

This is a special version/mode for public plan review agencies. Each time a Plan Check license is granted an expiration date is set after which time the software stops operating. In addition the printouts have a watermark stating that it is a plan check version and the agencies name and registration number is printed.
