Requesting a license
If you are installing K2-XDP-2HDIO-FK or K2-XDT-2HDIO-FK, make sure you have installed
the upgrade codec module, as instructed in the previous task.
1. If you have not already done so, log on to the K2 Summit/Solo system.
NOTE: You must log in as an Administrator with a local account, not a domain account.
2. On the Windows desktop in the Grass Valley License Requests folder, open the appropriate
license request shortcut.
The License Request Wizard displays.
3. Read the on-screen instructions, then click Next .
The Customer dialog box displays.
4. Enter the information requested on this page then click Next .
You must provide a valid email address to receive your license file.
The Sales Number dialog box displays.
5. Enter the Sales Order Number in the field then click Next .
Typically the Sales Order Number is found on the Software License sheet that you received from
Grass Valley.
The Summary dialog box displays.
6. Review the License Request information and click Finish .
A License Request text file, License_Request_.txt , is generated and saved to
the Windows Desktop.
NOTE: If you are requesting licenses for more than one application, be sure to modify the
name of the first License Request text file before saving it to your desktop. (In Notepad, use
the Save As command.) Otherwise, the second License Request text file will overwrite it.
7. If a K2 Summit/Solo system and the write filter is currently enabled, be aware that files on the
desktop are lost on restart. Therefore do one of the following:
• Save the License Request text file(s) to a different location.
• Keep the K2 system running (do not restart) until after you have requested the license(s).
8. Do one of the following:
• Attach the License Request text file to an email.
• Paste the text directly into an email message.
You might want to keep a copy of the message for your records.
9. Send the email as instructed by the License Request Wizard.
An email will be sent from Grass Valley to the return email address you specified; your
SabreTooth software license will be provided as a text file.
10. Save this email in case you ever need to re-image this machine.
