When the HLM software opens it presents a simple easy to use application. Licenses can be managed in either of two forms:
Standalone licenses work much the same as SA's traditional cloud licenses. They are designed as a single user license that must be registered using an online activation process and then is available for use locally. The only difference is that the HLM software does the registration process and then allocates the license to SA.
The HLM Software also provides an easy-to-use network license solution. In this configuration, a single machine is the License Administrator application for additional machines. For more information on Network setup, click here.

Online Computer - Send an activation request. Copy the returned file from the Online Computer to transfer to the Offline Computer.
Offline Computer - Install license file.
At this point, the license should be installed and ready for use in HLM on the Offline machine.
Manual activation is accomplished through the Actions tab:
