3.2. Activating Your License

Purchasing this kit entitles you to a one-year license for the Development Kit Edition (DKE) of the Intel® Quartus® Prime software.

After one year, your DKE license will no longer be valid and you will not be permitted to use this version of the Intel® Quartus® Prime software. To continue using the Intel® Quartus® Prime software, you should download the free Intel® Quartus® Prime Web Edition or purchase a subscription to Intel® Quartus® Prime software.

Before using the Intel® Quartus® Prime software, you must activate your license, identify specific users and computers, and obtain and install a license file.

If you already have a licensed version of the subscription edition, you can use that license file with this kit. If not, follow these steps:

  1. Log on at the MyIntel Account Sign In webpage, and click Sign In.
  2. On the MyIntel Home web page, click the Self-Service Licensing Center link.
  3. Locate the serial number printed on the side of the development kit box below the bottom bar code. The number consists of alphanumeric characters and does not contain hyphens: for example, 5xxxSoCxxxxxxx.
  4. On the Self-Service Licensing Center web page, click the Find it with your License Activation Code link.
  5. In the Find/Activate Products dialog box, enter your development kit serial number and click Search.
  6. When your product appears, turn on the check box next to the product name.
  7. Click Activate Selected Products, and click Close.
  8. When licensing is complete, Intel emails a license.dat file to you. Store the file on your computer and use the License Setup page of the Options dialog box in the Intel® Quartus® Prime software to enable the software.

To license the Intel® Quartus® Prime software, you need your computer’s network interface card (NIC) ID, a number that uniquely identifies your computer. On the computer you use to run the Intel® Quartus® Prime software, type ipconfig/all at a command prompt to determine the NIC ID. Your NIC ID is the 12-digit hexadecimal number on the Physical Address line.

For complete licensing details, refer to the Intel FPGA Software Installation and Licensing.
