Plandroid - Graphical Air Conditioning Design and Quoting Software
Plandroid Help Documentation
You can check the Plandroid licence prices and buy a licence on the Plandroid website: www.plandroid.com. Just register as a customer to create an account, login, and follow the links to buy a licence. There are discounts available for purchasing multiple licences for a single site, for renewing your licences, and for buying licences for multiple years.
A licence generally lasts for one year, and is specific to the ID on one of your computer drives. Go to the menu item Help -> Licensing Info to see the available drives on your machine, and copy the identifier you wish to use and paste it into the buy licence web page Computer ID field. (Again, you will need to register as a customer on the website first.)
Alternatively, you can select a drive and press the Email Licence Request button as shown below, and your computer ID will be emailed to us directly. Once you have made a purchase, we can email a licence back to you.
A USB stick will also appear as a drive if it has a serial number, so you may even be able to make your licence portable. However, serial numbers are optional on USB devices, so this will only work if you are using a USB sick that has one.
Installing Your Licence
Once you have purchased your licence, you will receive a digitally signed licence file as an attachment to an email which you need to save and import into the program. You can do this by opening the Help -> Licensing Info dialog box, and either press the "Import Licence" button and navigating to where you saved your licence, or simply drag and drop the licence file into the Licensing Information dialog box itself.
Your licence will now be activated.
Note that swapping or formatting your hard drives may change your drive ID, and therefore invalidate your licence.
Locked Licences
Plandroid supports a licence mechanism whereby the program can be locked so that it can only use parts catalogs from one or more specified suppliers. The Licensing Info dialog will report any locks on your licence.
Licence Diagnostics
If for any reason you are having a licensing problem, you can press Ctrl + Alt + D in this window, and a diagnostic email will be automatically generated. This email will contain information that you can send to our support team to help identify your problem.
