1. Point a browser at your device and navigate to Settings à Licensing and copy the long Installation Code
2. Visit the self-licensing website at http://activation.boschsecurity.com (click on the link on the right) and use your Activation Code and Installation Code to create a License Key
3. Copy the License Key
4. Paste the License Key into the device’s Settings à Licensing page to activate your software or feature.
