Obtain Software License

A valid software license is required to run RVS 2.0.

RVS 2.0 provides two authorization methods: Soft License (one-month trial) and USB Dongle License (long-term use).

Obtain Soft License

The soft license is suitable for short-term trial or evaluation scenarios. It requires no additional hardware, and it’s valid for one month, and renewed on the 1st of each month.

  1. Open RVS 2.0. An Authorization Notice dialog appears, saying “No valid license detected. Please download the authorization file from the official website.” Click Import License.

  2. In the Import License window, click Folder and select the license file downloaded from the official website.

  3. Click Update, and the License Info Preview window displays “License updated successfully” along with the license validity period and remaining days.

  4. Click OK. The software is now ready for use.

Obtain USB Dongle

The USB dongle is a long-term authorization method that verifies the license through a hardware dongle. It’s suitable for production environments or long-term use scenarios. To obtain a USB dongle license, follow the following steps:

  1. Contact Percipio sales team or an authorized agent to purchase a RVS 2.0 USB dongle.

  2. Insert the dongle into a USB port on your computer. You can check Device Manager > Universal Serial Bus Controllers to see whether the device is recognized successfully.
