Some functions such as attendance reports, fire zones and anti-passback are not available within the free BioStar version. The free version is also limited to a maximum of 20 scanners and after that you need the paid BioStar SE version of the software.
The SE version can be activated by adding a license code to your existing BioStar environment. This article will show you how to retrieve a site code to generate a license and how to activate your SE license after that.
- Install BioStar 1.62 or greater.
- Run the C:\Program Files\BioStar\Server\Support\CrypKey License Service\SetupEx.exe file.
- Open the BioStar Server Config
- Right click on the menu bar and you will see an option 'License'.
- Please click the button License and a new pop-up will appear.
- Please write down the site code and send it to support@easysecure.nl
Based on the site code we will prepare a BioStar SE License for you. We will send back a 'Site Key' which can be added in the same popup:
- Open the BioStar Server Config
- Right click on the menu bar and you will see an option 'License'.
- Please click the button License and a new pop-up will appear.
- Please fill in the 'Site Key' you received and click 'Validate'.
- Restart your BioStar server software and the SE License is succesfully activated.
