Cosmic Software FLEXid dongle and hostid Licensing

When using Cosmic Software development tools with a FLEXid hardware dongle you need to install system device drivers in order for the software and hardware to work together properly.

* Windows - 64-bit support - Cosmic Tool versions older than 2010 may not recognize the dongle FlexID on Win 64 bit. This may require the use of a floating license. Please contact Cosmic technical support for more information.

Hostid registration is not required when using FLEXid dongles or floating licenses. See the General License Info page and FLEXlm End User's Guide for more information.

Please contact your local Cosmic support office should you have any questions or problems.
