“Licensing” menu
A number of functions of the U 118 (e.g. the TS Analyzer) can only be used after being enabled by
means of a licence key.
The licence key with the respective function can be purchased from ASTRO. You will receive a licence
key with which you can activate the functions using the web browser interface.
The format of the licence key is a text document (e.g. Lic001772000222.txt).
To activate the functions, start by clicking on the “Licensing” item in the menu at the left. The following
input mask now appears:

Now enter the licence key sent to you in the input field. The key or keys can be entered in the input
mask using “Copy & Paste”. Then click on the “Submit” button to transmit the text to the device. If the
licence is valid, this is confirmed with the message “License is valid”. An error message is displayed for
an invalid licence.
To order additional licences, the MAC address of the device must be specified.
You will find the MAC address on the web browser interface in the “Licensing” submenu (HWID). After
the MAC address has been submitted, the licence keys are generated by ASTRO are sent by e-mail
or on a CD.
