Hardware Locks

In addition to the hardware requirements listed above, it is important to note that Router-CIM and AutoNEST require hardware locks (often called 'dongles') in order to function. These can be either a USB type or a Parallel Port (printer port) type.  Since there are two hardware locks required if you are using the nest software, you should have two USB ports available.  For the parallel port type, only one port is necessary since these locks can plug into each other.

 

Note on Hardware Locks:

The Router-CIM 2007-2019 Hardware Locks are different than the 2004, 2005, and 2006 Hardware Locks.  If you are upgrading from a version prior to 2007, you will receive a new Hardware Lock with the software and will have to return the old Hardware Lock through a traceable carrier.  Lost locks are the customer’s responsibility so insure your shipment for full software value.  If you fail to return the old lock, you will be invoiced for the full purchase price of the software.  If you have Router-CIM 2007 or newer, the hardware locks are compatible and no switch is necessary.

 

If you are using parallel port hardware locks instead of USB hardware locks, it is not suggested to have a printer, ZIP disk, scanner or any other device connected to the same port as your AutoNest hardware lock. Certain devices may cause hardware lock failure, which will render the software useless until the lock is replaced. Other printing conflicts may occur while printing through the same port as the hardware lock. It may be necessary to have a second parallel port dedicated specifically to the hardware lock.
