Activating a Calman License

August 3, 2020

How to activate your Calman license, after installation

After you have installed Calman software on the desired computer, you will need to activate the software on that computer with a Portrait-supplied License ID and License Password. A License ID and License Password will activate Calman software for use on only one computer. The Calman computer will normally need to be connected to the internet to perform a license activation.

Activate on First Launch

  1. When you launch Calman for the first time after installing the software, an Enter License dialog will prompt you to enter a New License.
  2. Copy and paste or manually type your supplied License ID and License Password into the New License section.
    Note: The License Password is case sensitive.
  3. Click the Activate Online button.
  4. If the software is able to activate the license online, Calman will then launch. And a dialog will also appear, stating that the license activation was successful.

Activate From Within Calman

  1. Open the Calman main menu, in the upper left
  2. Select Licensing.
  3. On the License dialog that appears, enter your supplied License ID and License Password.
    Note: The License Password is case sensitive.
  4. Click the Activate Online button.
  5. When the Calman license is activated, the green text in the Existing Licenses section changes from “Calman Trial Evaluation” to the activated license name
