Hardware ID Reset

  •  INTRODUCTION

Every time Dualog Connection Suite is uninstalled from a server and reinstalled on a new server, be it onboard a ship or at an office, the new server needs to be manually acknowledged onshore to avoid the risk of running more than one installation of our services on the same vessel/office account.

When a Dualog Connection Suite installation needs a Hardware ID to reset, it will display a "Connection blocked by the Dualog Cloud" error message when trying to connect on the new server.

The user may try connecting from the new installation and verify that the previous "Connection blocked by the Dualog Cloud " error message is now gone.

New Hardware ID will be registered upon a successful connection from the new installation.
