Many customers will not have direct internet access. License activation and deactivation can be done by transferring a license certificate to a computer with access. To do so follow these steps:
Select Offline Activation and enter the license code and user details. Press the Generate Activation Certificate button.
Click in the certificate field, press Alt + A to select all, and then paste this code into a text file or Word document for transfer. This saved Certificate needs to be transferred to a computer that is currently online to complete the registration process.
Browse to our Cloud License Activation Site here: http://kinematics.com/spatialanalyzer/cloud.php
Paste the Activation Certificate into the site and press Activate. This will generate a license Certificate that can then be transferred back to the offline computer.
Once this License Certificate is entered into the Offline Cloud Activation Dialog the cloud license should be successfully activated for that machine.
The Activation and Deactivation process is the same. A License Certificate must be generated from the offline computer. That certificate must be used to perform the desired activation / deactivation process from an online computer.
Cloud license Activation Certificates have changed and have many characters. Older versions of SA cannot accept these new cloud key certificates because they have too many characters. The Cloud License activation form was updated in SA version 2021.2.71490.1. This update allowed SA to accept an unlimited number of characters. If you have an older version of SA (older than 2021.2), you can still use a cloud license, but you will need to install a newer version of SA to perform the offline license activation process. This can be done with an older license by installing both the version you want to use and a new version used only for license management.
