Entering the license key

I’m in the evaluation period, how can I change this? Where do I enter the license key?

DentalCAM & DentalCNC require a license key to function properly. The license key is stored on the control unit of the machine for which the applications were licensed. Therefore, you need a license key for every machine.

  • New machines already have the license keys stored on their control unit.

  • If no valid license key is found, you can mill up to 50 jobs until the evaluation period ends.

License keys for version 7 or below are not valid for DentalCAM & DentalCNC 8.

If no license key is stored in the currently connected machine, you enter the license key as follows:

  1. Start DentalCNC.
  2. Switch on the machine at the main power switch.
  3. Wait until the machine has referenced.
  4. Open the DentalCNC Application settings with the following icon in the main icon bar:
