License

Activate a license key to inject the receiver quota (Device Limit) into the master, and recover receivers from the STOP state when a license goes invalid.

Ready-made kit · master only

The 16-character license key (delivered by the operator)

License activation#

One key per master. Receivers need no license of their own.

1
Enter the key
Type the 16-character key → hyphens auto-inserted, uppercase alphanumerics only
2
Activate
Press the button (or Enter) → validation-started toast, asynchronous check
3
Read the result (~3s)
Success: Active (N) badge and the banner disappears → Failure: reason toast (mismatch, key assigned elsewhere)

License Status field	Meaning
Device Limit	How many receivers may enroll (e.g. 20 devices)
License Key	The full registered key or Not registered
Status badge	Active (N) / Inactive / Trial / Checking / Not Registered

Internet required · offline behavior

The device validates against the license server directly. With the network down an existing valid license stays valid — only new validations fail.

Connection diagnostics#

The Connection Test button on the License screen checks two stages in order.

Stage	Checks	Success shows
1. DNS	Can the device reach the internet	Response time in ms (green)
2. License Server	License server reachability incl. server DB	Success + DB reachable

DNS green but server red means a server-side reason is shown — retry after a while.

Behavior when invalid (receiver STOP and recovery)#

An invalid license raises a warning banner on every screen (no dismiss) and puts receivers into STOPPED.

1
Reactivate
Re-enter the key with the procedure above → Active (N) badge
2
Physically reboot receivers
Power-cycle stopped receivers → STOPPED overlay clears and tally resumes

STOP does not clear itself

Reactivation alone does not revive receivers — physically reboot them. In STOP the receiver buttons are blocked too.

Active (N) badge shown
Warning banner gone
