Product Activation
Product activation is achieved by connecting to a SELECT Server, receiving a verification that your SELECT Server Name and Activation Key are correct, and successfully posting Usage logs. Product activation is not the same as checking out a license. This document describes how to configure Bentley WaterGEMS V8i for activation. After initial configuration, Bentley WaterGEMS V8i automatically and transparently tries to activate each time it runs, and runs unconstrained for a period of 30 days after its last successful activation. However, if activation is unsuccessful for a period of 30 days, Bentley WaterGEMS V8i runs in unregistered mode with limited functionality.
