HL Upgrade Instructions
HL Upgrade Instructions
Hardware locks are used by many software vendors. Hardware locks shipped by COADE may have multiple
labels. One label may be a COADE label with the COADE product name. The other label will be a more
permanent label found on most hardware locks. The permanent label will have an "ID" which can be used to
determine what type of lock it is. The CADWorx local HASP lock will have an ID of "WQZGB" and can be in
either parallel or USB form. The new COADE local HL lock will have an ID of "MQCQX" and is only in the USB
form. The new HL lock is available only in USB form. There is no parallel port version of the new HL lock. If your
computer does not have a USB port, a USB card will have to be purchased for the new HL lock. Use the ID and
images below to determine what type of locks you have before starting the transfer.

The old COADE NetHASP came in four license variations: NET5, NET10, NET20, NET50
The new COADE NetHL has two license variations: NET10, NET50
The number after NET__ is the maximum number of licenses allowed on the hardware lock, and will also be on
the label attached to the lock.
NetHASP NET5 and NET10 will have to be transferred to a NetHL NET10.
NetHASP NET20 and NET50 will have to be transferred to a NetHL NET50.
Use the ID, NET__ values, and images below to determine what type of locks you have before starting the
transfer.

The utility will prompt to insure that the hardware locks have been connected to the computer, as shown in the
figure below.
The license information will be transferred from the old HASP lock to the new HL lock. Once the process has
been completed, the utility will report this fact, as shown in the figure below. Depending on your computer's
hardware setup, the transfer can take several minutes to complete.
Clicking the [OK] button at this point will close the application. Once the licensing information has been
transferred to the new HL lock, CADWorx should start as expected.

The CADWorx License Transfer Utility assumes that the old HASP lock contains valid licensing information.
Appropriate error messages are displayed if these assumptions are not correct. For example, if the local HL key
already has a valid CADWorx license, the following message will be displayed:
It is also assumes that correct locks will be plugged in for the transfer. For example, attempting to transfer
licensing information from a network lock to a local lock will generate an error.
Attempting to transfer a license multiple times from the same local HASP lock will also result in an error.
The license transfer will ONLY WORK for "full run", "non-limited" local HASP locks and NetHASP network locks.
Licensing for "date limited" locks will not be transferred.
If you have many locks to transfer, the licenses can all be transferred to the new HL locks using the same
machine. CADWorx License Transfer Utility can be run multiple times with different sets of the old HASP and
new HL locks.
