Installing a new FLEXid=9 USB keylock and drivers - Obsolete

NOTE: FLEXid=9 dongles are no longer supported by the latest FLEXlm software for Aldec Products. Please contact customercare@aldec.com for further help.

NOTE: For Flex-10 dongles, please visit: https://www.aldec.com/en/support/resources/documentation/articles/2192

If your Active-HDL, Riviera-PRO, ALINT, HES/DVM or Netlist Converter license is issued for a USB FLEXid keylock or dongle (license file contains reference to "flexid=9" in the server line), installing the drivers may be necessary. Read Verifying Driver Installation below to check if you need to install the driver.

NOTE: USB FLEXid keylocks are labeled with a FLEXid number, in the format FLEXid=9-xxxxxxxx, where x is a hexadecimal number. The FLEXid=9 (HASP) keylock is green as shown below:
