You can transfer your existing data, your catalogues, user defined cards and saved plans, and export it from one Innoplus installation and import it to another PC, for example, if you are upgrading your PC or laptop, or if you have two workstations.
|
NOTE! Using Innoplus on two different workstations concurrently, for example, a laptop and an office PC, is only possible for USB dongle licence users. Simply plug your USB dongle licence into the workstation you are using at the time. Software licence users can only have one active installation of Innoplus at a time. |
Before you start
| NOTE! If you use a software licence key, submit a license request to our support team before starting. If you use a USB dongle licence, you do not need to make a licence request. |
