LICENSING

 Which version of TMiQ do I use to request a license?
Request a license from the same major version you plan to run: use v4 to request a v4 license, and v3 to request a v3 license.

 Can I use a v3 license with TMiQ v4 (or higher)?
No. Licenses are not forward‑compatible. A v3 license will not work with v4 or any later release.

 What is the difference between a plugin license and a standalone license?

• Plugin license – activates only the GibbsCAM plugin.
• Standalone license – activates only the stand‑alone application.
  The two license types are not interchangeable.

 Will my plugin license work for the standalone application (or vice versa)?
No. Each license type is restricted to its own product.

 Why is a plugin license tied to my GibbsID and PC?
The plugin license is bound to:

• GibbsID – identifies the GibbsCAM installation.
• Local PC – the machine from which the request was made.
  It will not run on a different GibbsID or a different computer.

 Why is a standalone license tied to hardware?
Standalone licenses use the hardware identifier of the requesting PC. They will run only on that machine.
