This upgrade is valid for all users having a license of OntheAir Video 2.3 or later and that wants to upgrade to OnTheAir Node. All options are transfered with the upgrade, meaning that if you already have an HD option for example, you will keep it with the upgrade.

ABOUT THE OPTIONS TRANSFER
There are a few differences between OnTheAir Video and OnTheAir Node concerning the options:
- OnTheAir Video had 4 options: HD, Logo overlay, multi-channel audio, scheduling. - OnTheAir Node "only" has 2 options: HD and Logo overlay. So what happens with multi-channel audio and scheduling. Well Multi-channel audio is now bundled with every OnTheAir Node license. Scheduling is not yet available but will come at no charge with the same scheduler as OnTheAir video (using OntheAir Tools). For users who want to upgrade to OntheAir Manager, they will have to purchase a license for OnTheAir Manager or OnTheAir Server when they will be available (forth quarter 2010).

HOW TO UPGRADE ?

If you are using a Serial Number, you will receive an upgrade serial number that you will add to the list of serial numbers in the "License" window and activate it, just as a "Master Serial Number" (the one that you received when you first ordered. This means that you will always have to have the 2 Serial Numbers activated.

If you are using a Dongle, you will need to send us the dongle serial number that you intend to upgrade so we can send you an upgrade file for that dongle.

If you are using a Serial Number but want to upgrade to a dongle, it is still possible, order a dongle from the store and tell us what Application Serial Number it should replace. We will then send you the procedure for the migration.


<SERIAL NUMBER OR DONGLE ?
By default, when ordering a license, you will receive a Serial Number by email that will require an activation using an internet connection. Before moving your serial number to another computer, you will need to deactivate it form the first computer. We strongly advise ordering the dongle option in cases of a critical use of the software, for example, if you need to move your license frequently from one computer to another, OR if you want to quickly move the license from the main computer to the backup in case of a hardware malfunction.


For more information on the activaton/deactivation process or the dongles, you should have a look at the document Application Licensing Explained" available from the Support > Download Document page of the Softron website.
