How do I manually generate license unlock codes for my OWS license?

Manually Activate Licensing

Typically, an OWS recorder will reach out to the internet to confirm the current licensing applied to the unit, as well as download any new licenses that are applied. Sometimes, due to a lack of internet connection or similar issue, this is not possible. In this situation you will need to activate licensing manually.
