Q. Change AutoPIPE Edition License to: (Standard, Advanced, Nuclear)


Note:

a. User must be signed into CONNECTION Client before proceeding below, or have imported a license file with specific entitlements. 

b. The same exact downloaded file is used by AutoPIPE Standard, Advanced, Nuclear, and all other language editions (such as Japanese, Polish, etc.). There's no need to download more than once. What functions and languages are available while using the software are determined by the license choice (ex. Standard, Advanced, or Nuclear) and program settings choice.

AutoPIPE will default to Demo mode when the application is first installed, the user must then change the edition setting on the "Welcome to AutoPIPE Licensing" dialog. This dialog will automatically appear when first starting AutoPIPE after being installed or as long as the "Show Welcome Screen on startup" checkbox is enabled in the lower left corner of the dialog. 

Otherwise, use the procedure here to open the "Welcome to AutoPIPE Licensing" dialog

Again, after opening the dialog the user must select an edition of the program to be used during the current Work session

(choose the appropriate radio button in front of the edition, Standard, Advanced, or Nuclear, to be used during this current session).

If it is not clear which option you should choose, contact your company's Bentley On-site Administrator(s) for assistance.
