5. More Hints
Note for users of the Network (SIMUS) Version of SigmaPlot 13:
For the Network Version of SigmaPlot 14 you need an updated version of the License Manager (haspdinst.exe).
The License Manager of SigmaPlot 14 can manage licenses of SigmaPlot 13, but not vice versa.
Subnets: If the IP address of a client machine is on a different subnet than the License Manager machine,
you must create a configuration file on the client machine to find the License Manager:
Accessing Sentinel License Manager Located on a Different Subnet.
Note for users of the Network Versions of SigmaPlot 11 and 12:
The License Manager of SigmaPlot 13 is also made by the Sentinel company,
but it is different from the one used by SigmaPlot 11 and 12 (and SYSTAT 13).
You cannot add a license for SigmaPlot 13 to the existing older License Manager.
However, both License Managers can work on the same machine side by side.
