License Setup

Activate your SimSolid license from within the product.

When you start your SimSolid session, the Altair License Setup dialog will automatically open. You have two license options:

Trial license

Enter the user name and password. These values are obtained by registering for the trial license at www.altair.com. Optionally, enter company specific proxy parameters.

Note:

Trial licenses are for product evaluation only and may not be used for production or any other commercial purposes. Trial licenses are full functioning but time limited. The time remaining in the trial is given in the SimSolid title bar and About window.

Standard HyperWorks units license

SimSolid licensed with HyperWorks Units requires Altair License Management System 14.0.2 and a HyperWorks 2019 or later license file.

To point to the server, enter values in either the License file or the License server field. The License file is used in cases where a node-locked license does not require Altair License Management System. This value is the full path to the license file located on your local computer. The License server points to one or more network license locations. The proper format for the network license location is port@hostname. Multiple license servers are allowed and should be separated by a semi-colon (;).

Note:

The license server values can be alternatively located in the Microsoft Windows environment variable ALTAIR_LICENSE_PATH.
