The Light-O-Rama Software Package must be registered, with a valid license, before it can be used to its full potential. Without a license, Light-O-Rama can be used as a demo, but it will not actually control your lights.
There are several different license levels, each having different features available; please see the feature comparison for details.
To register Light-O-Rama first visit the Light-O-Rama website, and purchase a license. You will then be able to enter your license information in any of a few different ways: When you first install the software, or using the "Register Light-O-Rama" (or "Upgrade Light-O-Rama") menu items on the Sequence Editor's Help menu or on the Control Panel's popup menu.
Doing any of these things will open the Registration dialog:
The Registration Dialog
If your computer is connected to the internet, you can register simply by entering the name and license key from your license information, and clicking "Register" (the license name and key can be copied and pasted from the email in which they were sent to you). Light-O-Rama will then automatically verify your license information, and, if it is valid, register your computer.
You may then have to close any Light-O-Rama programs that are running, and then restart them, before all of your newly available features will be available.
If your computer is not connected to the internet, click on the link at the bottom of the Registration dialog in order to register offline.
