GTX Licensing Support
Software Licensing Basics
GTXRaster CAD Series is available as a software licensed single user standalone version and a networked floating license multiple user version. Installation of a standalone software licensed GTXRaster CAD Series is permanently dedicated to a particular personal computer. The networked floating software license is distributed from a License Server System, which is permanently dedicated to a particular computer. Access to a floating GTX software license is available to any personal computer which shares a common network with the License Server System.
A FLEXENABLED software license for GTX is provided in the form of a license file, GTXNET.LIC, or GTX.LIC, which describe a GTXRaster CAD Series program license level using the following convention;

This file is the key to licensed operation of the GTXRaster CAD 2026 Series program on a single computer. The data contains encrypted information about the computer it was created to serve and will serve no purpose if applied to a different computer.
An archive of the GTX.LIC file should be maintained for the occasion of removal and reinstallation of the GTXRaster CAD 2026 Series program on the computer which the GTX.LIC file is intended to serve.
Network Software License
Introduction
FLEXnet® Licensing allows GTXRaster CAD 2026 Series licenses to be available anywhere on a network. A computer on the network must be chosen to host a License Server System (license manager) which provides licenses to client computers running the GTXRaster CAD 2026 Series
FLEXnet enabled application. Other CAD applications are also utalizing FLEXnet enabled applications, with an established License Server System, the choice could be made to incorporate GTX licence management on the same machine which supports the AutoCAD or other CAD applications License Server System.
Note: A comprehensive document on all aspects of installation, usage, and troubleshooting of Flexera software license administration tools is provided: fnp_LicAdmin.pdf.
Two different License Server Manager utilities are described in this documentation. One is named LMTools and the other is named LMAdmin.
IMPORTANT: GTX supplies active, authorized, distributable licenses in the form of a file named GTXNET.LIC.
The choice of a licensing host computer must be made before applying to GTX for an authorized license file. Through encrypted information contained in the file, the GTXNET.LIC identifies the License Server host machine as the only machine capable of serving GTX license distribution.
