Gathering The Fingerprint Information
Now that the installation of the Sentinel RMS License Manager has been completed, you need to gather the fingerprint (Locking Code) and send this information to our Support Team at support@catalyst.earth
Open the Wechoid Window. This is available through Start Menu > Programs > CATALYST License Server > Server Fingerprint Utility. It is also located in the following folders C:\Program Files (x86)\PCI Geomatics\SentinelUtilities\License_server\ServerUtils and C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\SafeNet Sentinel\Sentinel RMS License Manager\WinNT
This panel includes a number of check-boxes. Each of these corresponds to a different hardware locking criteria. Please generate the fingerprint following the instructions below, depending on your server configuration.
Dongle-Based Fingerprint
You will need to get the dongle-based fingerprint information if you have a USB dongle plugged into your server computer.
- On the WEchoid panel Un-check all of the boxes.
- Re-check the Computer ID box
- The Selector information at the bottom of the window will change to 0x80
- Both the Selector and Code comprise the server fingerprint
- Capture a print screen (ALT + PrtScn) or copy the locking code and send it to our Support Team at support@catalyst.earth
**Note: If computer ID is greyed out, the dongle is not properly being detected. Download and install the Sentinel Driver from the following link: https://sentinel.gemalto.com/support_and_downloads/Download_Drivers/Sentinel_Drivers/.
