Obtaining your activation key
Builder Xcessory uses the GLOBEtrotter Software Inc. Flexible License Manager (FLEXlm). When you receive Builder Xcessory, contact ICS to obtain your activation key. Based on information about your server configuration, the activation key allows you to obtain a license to run Builder Xcessory. You can run the Builder Xcessory in demo mode without a license, but you must have a license to save a session's work by writing out UIL files.
Note: If you have Builder Xcessory 1.x, 2.x, or 3.x, you must request a new activation key .
