KeyShot Floating - License Client Installation

KeyShot Floating - License Client Installation

License Client Setup Instructions

1. Download and install the KeyShot Pro Floating application from here: https://www.keyshot.com/resources/downloads/

2. Launch KeyShot

3. Select "Floating License" and click "Continue". If you are currently in demo mode, open the registration wizard from Windows (Help > Register License) or Mac (KeyShot > Register License).


4. Enter the hostname of your license server. If the server uses another FlexLM port than the standard (27000) you need to specify the port number, followed by the “@” sign and the server’s hostname (for example, 27000@KeyShotServer.local). Click "Connect".


You may also use the server’s IP Address (use the IP Address if your license server is a PC). For example, 27000@192.168.1.123. Click "Connect".


5. Review your license features, select the type of license you want to use and if you need KeyShot XR and Click "Done". 


KeyShot Pro Floating will start. From now on, KeyShot will remember the server information. You will be able to check out the license as long as your system can connect to the computer acting as the license server.
