How Do I Check What Licenses are on my Token?

License Viewer

How can I determine what licenses are on my MotoHawk dongle, and how many versions I need to be current?<br\>

You can easily see what MotoHawk licenses are on your dongle, and how many versions it will take to be back in date. To do this:

  1. Place the MotoHawk Dongle in the USB port of your computer.
  2. Lauch the License Viewer Application in the Start Menu under Start --> All Programs --> MotoTools --> MotoTron License Viewer
  3. The Viewer will display the MotoHawk versions for which you are currently licensed.

In this case, the latest version the dongle is licensed to is 2012b.

To update to 2013b (and keep all versions back to 2008a), the dongle would need 2 versions (2013a and 2013b).

License Update

I want to Update My MotoHawk License. How can I do this?

The MotoHawk license can be easily updated through a Simple email Transaction, using the License Update Program.

Use the License Update program (in Windows: Start -> Programs -> MotoTools -> LicenseUpdate) to update licensing codes in a silver Woodward MCS MotoTron security token (dongle). LicenseUpdate creates a transaction file that can be emailed to mcslicense@woodward.com for updating.

These steps are outlined in sections below:

Note: Updating a MotoHawk license generally requires the purchase of a MotoHawk License Maintanance (p/n 8928-5047). To speed up your License update, please include the Woodward Sales Order number with your license update request.
