Installing C Tech Floating License Client Software

Earth Volumetric Studio is available only as download from www.ctech.com. You must be a registered user in order to download the software:

Installation requires Administrator rights. Run the executable and follow the instructions to set your preferred install folder and options.

With all licensing options, the first step of client installations is to set up the proper license type in the Earth Volumetric Studio License Manager. Below are the correct options for a Floating (concurrent) License. Be sure to set your User and Organization name correctly, as this will be important in order to receive technical support in the future. You must also specify whether you want Earth Volumetric Studio Standard or Advanced. Customers with current EVS-Pro or MVS licenses would run Standard or Advance respectively.

Additionally, you must enter one or more servers which are hosting the license(s) this client will use. One or more server names can be typed in directly:

Or... you may Load a servers.cfg file created using Key_tools on one of the servers:

Once the screen above is closed, it will not reopen unless you run the License Manager explicitly. Each time you start Earth Volumetric Studio, the options you have set above will apply.

If you rerun the License Manager, you can add, remove or rearrange the server order. This will determine your server priority. It is always best to select nearby servers with minimal latency so that EVS starts up promptly.

By clicking on "Name/IP", that server is selected. You can then change its priority or remove it. Note that if you have a server on your computer at all times, localhost should be your first server for optimal performance. However, if you occasionally act as the server only when disconnected from your office LAN, then the second position is a good compromise.

Note: the figure below shows Enterprise selected, but the server order options still apply.
