Dashboard (PDA or PC) is encrypted and requires a key to
unlock the encryption. When the Dashboard software is first
activated on your device, a keycode will appear. For example:
• Dashboard Keycode = 7790793D6995DD8
This keycode is then used to generate a random key to unlock
the software. For example:
• Dashboard Key = 699907DD893705D
Each key code is unique for every PC and PDA; therefore, the
end user must obtain a key code for every installed platform.
Once the key is validated, the end user must accept the terms of
the agreement prior to first use.
The key to unlock the code is available from the factory by calling
434-528-4400 and asking to speak with a service representative.
