Configuring the License Service
After installing the service, some configuration is required, using the Avid Service
Configuration application. This application should already be installed on a PC on the same
network, but might not necessarily be installed on the same computer as the Command
Server software or the License service.
Configuring the Avid License service involves three tasks:
Adding the Temporary Command License
Generate an Activation File for a Full Command License
Add the Permanent Command License
Adding the Temporary Command License
To get you started with Avid iNEWS Command, Avid provides you with a Command
temporary (TEMP) license to use until your get your full Command license.

3. On the Hosts tab, navigate to and select the Avid License Service.
4. Click the Add License File button.
5. In the Add Licenses dialog box, select the license file and click Add Licenses.
Your license file information will appear.
