Activating S6L System Components
Activate each S6L system component using the Activation Card located in each component’s
package.
You must activate each S6L system component in order to access software and documentation
included with your system, including VENUE System Restore software and plug-ins. Both an
Avid account and an iLok account are required.
To obtain licenses and download links for your software:
1
Make sure you have your iLok account and software set up first:
• If you do not already have an iLok account, visit
www.ilok.com
to sign up for free.
• While at iLok.com, download the iLok License Manager and install it on your computer. This application allows you to man-
age all your iLok licenses and accounts without having to open a web browser. An Internet connection is required to transfer
licenses to and from your iLok.com account.
