Configuring License

TC-Toolbox for MATLAB^® requires a license to run, you can obtain a license from the Thermo-Calc support support@thermocalc.com.

Depending on the type of license, an additional step is required to configure TC-Toolbox for MATLAB^® to use it.

License activation

Only required for licenses with user credentials.

You need to activate the TC-Toolbox for MATLAB^® license once on your computer. This license differs from that for the Thermo-Calc application and thus it is not sufficient to activate only the Thermo-Calc GUI.

The activation is done with the methods in the class tc_toolbox.LicenseManager. Depending on the type of license various methods are available, for example for online and offline activation.

It is recommended to simply run the example Miscellaneous/matex_M_04_License.m to perform the activation and deactivation. By default an online activation is performed, but you can choose another method by activating another method among those being commented out at the end of the file.

Note

You need to deactivate the license if you want to use it on another computer.
