The first step when using a Wibu licence for TUFLOW modelling is to install CodeMeter User Runtime. It needs to be installed for all computers that will be running TUFLOW or configured as a network licence server.
 
== Installing for Windows ==
If you are on a Windows computer, refer to:
* <u>[[Installing_Wibu_CodeMeter_Windows|Installing Wibu CodeMeter Windows]]</u>.
 
==Installing CodeMeter RunTime Kit for Linux==
If you are installing on a Linux computer from the command line, refer to:
* <u>[[Installing_Wibu_CodeMeter_Linux|Installing Wibu CodeMeter Linux]]</u>.
 
==Silent Install==
It is possible to do a silent install of the CodeMeter Runtime kit. CodeMeter support staff have advised that this can be done with the following parameters:<br>
<tt>CodeMeterRuntime.exe /ComponentArgs "*":"/qn"</tt>
<br>

* To update to new support year
* To add rental licences
For each change to the dongle, it will be necessary to provide a licence update request file to the TUFLOW staff. The procedure is the same for local and network licences, the request will need to be generated from the computer which has the licence container (ege.g. USB-2 hardware lock, software lock).
==Request a Licence Update==
The instructions for creating a licence request differ slightly depending on the licence container type and operating system. <br>
Line 40 ⟶ 31:
After creating the licence update request, please email the created file ('''.WibuCmRaC''') to <u>[mailto:sales@tuflow.com sales@tuflow.com]</u>.<br>
'''Cloud Licence''' <br>
* Contact <u>[mailto:sales@tuflow.com sales@tuflow.com]</u>.
 
==Import a Licence Update==
Once a licence update has been created, an update file will be provided to you via email. This update file will have the extension '''.WibuCmRaU'''. When an update is applied, this modifies the contents of the licence container (ege.g. USB-2 hardware lock, software lock), it does not need to be applied on each computer that will be used for TUFLOW modelling!<br><br>

=Configuring Licence Use=
==Configuring Network Server==
If the TUFLOW licence is a network licence, the computer hosting the dongle will need to be configured as a TUFLOW server. This is required even if the simulations are to be performed on the server. Instructions for configuring the network licence are detailed in the following page:<br>

==Diagnostics==
===cmDust===
When the CodeMeter Runtime Kit is installed a diagnostics utility call '''cmDust''' is also installed. The following link provides instructions how to create a diagnostics file. This file may be request by <u>[mailto:support@tuflow.com support@tuflow.com]</u> when solutions to licensing issues are being investigated:
