Starting with BVMS 11.0 the license activation will be done via the Bosch Remote Portal. 

For a proper use of BVMS Viewer version 11 or above, you need to activate the MBV-BVWR, which is FREE! 

Follow the steps below and find out how you can license BVMS Viewer v.11.0  or above for free.

3. Click on the Save... to save your SystemInfo to a file.

4. Click the Save button and a file with the SystemInfo will be created. Save the SystemInfo file on your computer.

NOTE:

Please note that might be situations when the "Open" button is not displayed, similar with the picture below:

5. Select the lservrc_xxx... file downloaded from Bosch Remote Portal and click Open

After successfully uploading your activation file, the license status changes to “activated” and your license information will be displayed.
