WIBU-KEY driver Diagnosis possibilities:

The WIBU-KEY drivers offer a diagnosis mode for a better local error detection.
In doing so, information is recorded which the driver generates when searching for or accessing WIBU-BOXes.
  • You may activate the diagnosis mode in the WIBU-KEY control panel applet located in the system control panel.
  • After executing WIBU-KEY move to the "Diagnosis" page, mark the option "Active" and starting the protocol
    by pressing the button "New".
  • Now move to the "Test" page by pressing the button "Scan ports" in order to rescan all connected WIBU-BOXes.
  • After this press the "Start" button and run 50 tests.
  • In case of errors go back to page "Diagnosis". The displayed error message can be saved into a file via the button "Save as".
These tests can also be run via the network, e.g. the WIBU-KEY server can be checked.

Pressing the Report button on the "Diagnosis" page generates a file including information about the used operating system and the installed WIBU-KEY components.

Important:The report file facilitates a quick error analysis. Please, send this file together with the test protocol to our support-team
