DriverCentral Licensing and Auto-Update

Licensing

A single license will unlock as many instances of the driver as needed in your project. One instance of the Cloud Driver is required to activate all drivercentral licenses and trials. Here is a quick video that demonstrates the licensing process: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xXiX1euk9bU1

  1. Create your project on the drivercentral.io website (this will generate a unique token used in the next step).
  2. To download the driver, locate the downloads tab on the driver page on drivercentral.io. Once downloaded, unzip the file and add the driver to your drivers folder.
  3. Install and activate the DriverCentral Cloud Driver in your project by pasting the previously generated token in your project. If there is no license associated with the project a trial will automatically activate so long as the driver has not been installed in the past on the controller.
  4. To purchase a license, locate the driver on drivercentral.io website and add to the cart. Once checked out the purchased license will be found under available licenses in the projects portal.
  5. Using the available licenses tool, add a license to activate the driver in that project.
  6. Once the Cloud Driver checks in to the project (it does so once every hour) the driver will activate.
  7. If needed, use the Cloud Driver's action Check Drivers to force the check in and activate the driver right away.

Your driver activation is now complete! You may now continue to Driver Setup. Further clarification with visual representation can be found in the articles on https://help.drivercentral.io/
