You can activate the "Start mode" if you have not yet received a license key for your new Prinect Applikation. In the Start mode, you can use the full scope of your product for 15 days and then enable it on a permanent basis with the license key. We recommend that you order the license key at the same time you activate the Start mode.

The License ID parameter in this window can vary:
