Software Registration:
This guide explains how to use the Software Serial Number (SSN) or GUID (Globally Unique ID) and the Device ID number generated by your device to register the product online and retrieve your Software License Key. The Software License Key is used to activate the software. This activation process is the same for all MicroSurvey mobile products such as FieldGenius, Evidence Recorder, Seismic Surveyor or other OEM branded versions.
To perform this registration you will need a computer with access to the Internet.
Software Serial Number/GUID
With your purchase you should have received a Software Serial Number/GUID which is a series of letters and numbers that look like this:
· D9C83164-FB0E-4713-B457-CE593EFEA296
NOTES:
· If you do not have your Software Serial Number/GUID, please contact the issuing dealer, distributor, OEM vendor or your sales representative.
· Please keep your Software Serial Number/GUID stored in a secure place for future reference. You will require this Software Serial Number/GUID to retrieve lost passwords or to purchase updates or upgrades for your software in the future.
This guide was written with the assumption that your MicroSurvey software product has already been installed on your device. If this is not the case, please visit our website or contact your dealer, distributor, OEM vendor or sale representative for more information.
Step 1- Retrieve your Device ID number
The Device ID can be found after you install the software on your device and run it for the first time. On start up, all non-activated software will display the About Screen where a Device ID will be shown. You can also access this About Screen from the Menu Home icon inside the software.
NOTES: Please remove any SD memory card or SIM card from the device prior to running the software so an accurate Device ID can be generated.
A typical Device ID will look something like this:
· F008-F38C-4421-B482
