Hardlock Dongle (printer port) activation on new PCs

3 posts in this topic

Hi, Problem: You have SCADA CX-Supervisor v1.xx installed on an (very) old PC and you want to replace it with a brand new one. New PCs often don't have a native printer (LPT) port anymore. You install new printer port (ie. PCI card) onto motherboard, Windows installs it properly but IRQ and memory address is shared with other devices. After installing CX-Supervisor onto new PC, you would like to activate hardlock dongle protection. But you can't!!! When you try to activate hardlock dongle you get an error and activation isn't possible. Many times Omron is telling us we should upgrade and use USB dongle instead. Of course this costs some money. Sollution: This link provides newer driver for a hardlock dongle: http://www.aladdin.com/support/hardlock/downloads.aspx Download file: hldrv32.zip Install included exe file. Now you can activate your copy of CX-Supervisor with hardlock dongle on LPT (printer) port. Enjoy!
