Install or Update (apply V2C file)

Table of contents

Description

This option either:

  • opens Firefox Web browser (Graphical User Interface) in order to apply the V2C file you received from Stromasys or
  • if the 'hasp_update' executable file is present, coming from the CHARON kit (starting V4.6) or from a provided HASP SL runtime package, allows you to apply updates from a Character User Interface.

Using Graphical User Interface (GUI)

Select option 1 from the menu:

and click on the Browse button to select and apply the V2C files:

(info) In case of update, install the _fmt.v2c file first (_fmt = format)

 

Using Character User Interface (CUI)

Select option 2 from the menu:

You will have, if not already done, to specify the container (folder) where you store all the .v2c files.

Example:

(warning) The specified folder must already exist. In the example above, we used the "# mkdir -p /charon/licenses" command to create the container

Install or update your license:

  • In case the license is installed on the USB dongle for the first time, use option 1.
  • In case you add new products, update settings (more cpus, more memory...) or extend the expiration date, option 2 will be used.
 

Example:

The license updates will be applied in the order specified.

(lightbulb) In case errors are detected during update, common errors codes and their explanation are displayed.

(question) If the error code is not listed there, you can have a look at this article: hasp_update utility returns error message (if the code is not listed there, please contact our support)
