Using FactoryTalk Activation Manager

Download and install FactoryTalk Activation Manager from https://activate.rockwellautomation.com/. You can also find it on the RSLogix 5000 installation CD.

Launch FactoryTalk Activation Manager and click on Get New Activations.

Select the option that matches your situation: I have a serial number and product key, I have an activation file (*.LIC), or I want to activate over the Internet.

Enter your serial number and product key, browse to your activation file, or follow the online instructions to complete the activation process.

Choose where you want to store your license file: on your computer or on a network server.
