		+	*This does mean that you registered successfully.
		+	*MCS Electronics will validate all registrations once in a few days. When the product is validated you will receive an email. After you receive the email, you can login to the register again. When you did not received an email within 1 week, check if the email address was entered correct. If it was correct, send an email to support.
		+	*Now you need to select 'Download LIC files'. The following screen will be shown:

		+	[[File:Download lic.png\|center\|Download lic.png]]
		+
		+
		+
		+	At the top you can see which products are registered, and which status they have.
		+
		+	When you want to do a FULL SETUP, you need to download the full version.
		+
		+	You <span style="font-weight: bold">do not </span>need to<span style="font-weight: bold">uninstall a previous version</span>. You can install an update into the same directory or a new directory.
		+
		+	You can also order the same update on CD-ROM. You will be directed to the on line shop. Notice that the shop uses a different account/username
		+
		+	When you uninstall a previous version, it will remove the license file which is not part of the setup.exe
		+
		+
		+
		+	[[File:Notice.jpg\|left\|Notice.jpg]]So in the event that you do run uninstall first, make a backup of the license dll named bscavrL.DLL
		+
		+
		+
		+	The ZIP file you download contains only one setup.exe. You need to run this executable.
		+
		+	It is also important that you put the license DLL into the same directory as setup.exe
		+
		+	Setup will copy this file to the BASCOM application directory. You can also manual copy this file.
		+
		+	The license file is on CD-ROM, diskette, or the media (email) you received it on. <span style="font-weight: bold">It is only supplied once.</span>
		+
		+	Without the file, BASCOM will not run.
		+
		+
		+
		+	The file is named bscavrL.DLL for BASCOM-AVR
		+
		+	When you got the license by email, it was zipped and probably had a different extension. Consult the original installation instructions.
		+
		+	The file is only provided once, we can not, and do not provide it again.
		+
		+
		+
		+	See [[Installation of BASCOM\|Installing BASCOM]] on how to do a full install.
		+
		+
		+
		+	It is also possible to do a partial update. For example to update some DAT files, or to update to a beta which is only available as an update.
		+
		+	For partial updates, you need the Update Wiz.
		+
		+
		+
		+	[[File:Update lic.png\|center\|Update lic.png]]
		+
		+
		+
		+	When you do not have the Update Wiz, you can download it from the register.
		+
		+	Unzip it to the same directory as BASCOM. Or use the Help, Update option from BASCOM-AVR.
		+
		+
		+
		+	The Update Wiz uses LIC files which you can download. A LIC file is a text file, it is not the LICENSE DLL !
		+
		+	Store the downloaded LIC file in the same directory as the Update Wiz.
		+
		+	When you store the Update Wiz into the same directory as BASCOM, the license DLL already exist there.
		+
		+	When you put the Update Wiz and the LIC files into a separate directory, you need to copy the BASCOM license DLL to this directory also.
		+
		+
		+
		+	When you run the Update Wiz, it will check for a new version of the updatewiz and will download this if available. It will then run again.
		+
		+
		+
		+
		+
		+	[[File:Wiz new.png\|center\|Wiz new.png]]
		+
		+
		+
		+	When the Update Wiz finds a LIC file, it will check if the update/install location is specified. For new downloaded LIC files, the update wiz does not know the update directory, and will ask for the directory you want to update. This can be any (new) directory, but usually is the BASCOM application directory.
		+
		+
		+
		+
		+
		+	[[File:Wiz newlic.png\|center\|Wiz newlic.png]]
		+
		+
		+
		+	After you click Ok, the directory to update is stored in the LIC file.
		+
		+	It will not be asked again. When you run the wiz with Help, Update, the lic file will be downloaded each time, and as a result, it will be asked each time you run this option.
		+
		+
		+
		+	[[File:Wiz main.png\|center\|Wiz main.png]]
		+
		+	Click the Next button to start the update.
		+
		+	It depends on the downloaded LIC files how many products are found.
		+
		+	You will get a similar window :
		+
		+
		+
		+	[[File:Wiz start.png\|center\|Wiz start.png]]
		+
		+
		+
		+	You need to select the product that you want to update. In the sample there are multiple choices.
		+
		+	Press the Next-button to continue.
		+
		+
		+
		+	The Wiz will compare files on the web with your local files in the specified directory.
		+
		+
		+
		+	[[File:Wiz check.png\|center\|Wiz check.png]]
		+
		+
		+
		+	When it finds packages that are newer, they will be shown in a list. By default they are all selected.
		+
		+	You can unselect the packages you do not want to update.
		+
		+	Press Next to download the selected packages.
		+
		+
		+
		+	[[File:Wiz down.png\|center\|Wiz down.png]]
		+
		+
		+
		+	During the download you will see the history file.
		+
		+	When all packages are downloaded, they will be installed/unzipped.
		+
		+	Press the Next-button to install the downloaded files.
		+
		+
		+
		+	[[File:Wiz ready.png\|center\|Wiz ready.png]]
		+
		+
		+
		+	During the installation you will see the progress.
		+
		+	When installation is ready, you need to press the Finish-button.
		+
		+
		+
		+	[[File:Notice.jpg\|left\|Notice.jpg]]The Wiz can also backup all files it will replace. Use the Setup button on the main screen of the UpdateWiz to change the settings. A full zipped backup will be made. The name of the backup files has the name of the license file with the ZIP extension.
		+
		+
		+
		+	You can install multiple versions in different directories.
		+
		+
		+
		+	Make sure you read the history.txt file after you have updated. Changes and new features are described in this file.
		+
		+	This file is opened automatic the first time you run a new version.
