Restrictions

Only capital letters are allowed (no local characters), numbers and the following special characters: /-.&()
Spaces are allowed at the end of a field but not between the letters.
 
If you are installing !MC5 only for testing purposes you might enter any code. But it should be as uniquely as possible. Please avoid codes like "11111111111“ or similar. Your testing partner will get problems when trying to enter such a code in his system.
 
Use a better readable code instead, e.g.:
ICD: 0815, Code: 004711TEST, CSA stays empty
ICD: 0013, Code: 005555BARTSCH
 
Please do not use these examples but integrate a short name of your own company into the code!

5 Now enter your license key or choose to register this installation as a demo. Then click Next to submit the registration.
