If you purchased Axiom software and receive a message stating that your temporary license has expired, you may still need to complete the registration of your single-computer license.

When you purchase a single-computer license, Axiom initially provides a temporary license that is not locked to a specific computer. This allows you to install and start using the software immediately.

To receive your full-term machine-locked license, you must send Axiom the CPU ID of the computer on which the software will be used. Axiom will use this CPU ID to generate a full-term license that is locked to that computer.

How to Find Your CPU ID

In MicroStation V8i, from the Axiom pull-down menu, select “Get my computer’s CPU-ID”.

In MicroStation CONNECT or later, from the Axiom ribbon choose "Get My Computer's CPU-ID"
