B.4 Installing the Chromeleon Software License
For the Chromeleon computer to control the ICS-2000, a valid software license
must be installed. To install the license, you first install a dongle on the computer
and then enter a license “Key Code” in Chromeleon. (A dongle is an adapter that
is connected to the parallel PC interface or USB port. The dongle stores the serial
number of a Chromeleon computer.)
NOTE If the software license is managed with a License
Server, a dongle is not required.
1. Plug the dongle into the appropriate port on the computer (either the parallel
or USB port, depending on the type of dongle). Tighten the connector screws
on a parallel port dongle.
2. Microsoft Windows will automatically detect the USB dongle and launch the
Found New Hardware Wizard. Complete the wizard by selecting the
following options:

connection, verify that the following steps are completed before continuing:
1. If it is not already installed, install the DX-LAN card in the module. Refer
to the operator’s manual for the module for installation instructions.
2. Install the DX-LAN card in the computer.
3. Connect the module to the DX-LAN.
4. Install the DX-LAN card driver.
