Check HW ID is used after the Generate Key is imported. It allows the user to discover the
Hardware ID (MAC Address) within the Generate Key. It is used mainly for trouble shooting
when an end user claims the Seat License license received is not working on COLLABORATE
Desktop. The Seat License Activation user can check that the MAC address he retrieves with
the Check HW ID is the same as the MAC Address the COLLABORATE Desktop user sees on
his PC. (Displayed when running “ipconfig /all” at the Comand prompt.)
» Note: The text of the Generate Key that appears in the window is a long encoded ASCII
character string containing unique data about the workstation and COLLABORATE
Desktop software that is essential to generating the Seat License for the workstation.
This must not be altered or the Generate Key will be invalid.
