For archived logs
3. Uncheck the View Today's Log box.

5. Click (or right-click to save) the hyperlink
Log files will either show on the screen or be saved as a text (.txt) file.

Installing a license key

To install a license key (CAP Plus, for example):
1. Log in to the DASDEC
2. Go to Setup > Server > Main/License page
3. Locate the CAP Plus field then insert the license key that was given to you in an email.
The CAP LICENSE KEY below is between the quotes and it is important to verify the serial number matches the serial number
of the unit. Note it is much easier to cut and paste instead of typing, as these keys are case, space and all character sensitive.
4. Once the key is copied into the appropriate field, scroll to the bottom of the page and click "Restart Server"
5. After the software restarts, log back in and verify the field is and shows the word :VALID
NOTE: (Specifically for the CAP Plus Key) The DASDEC must be at Version 2.0-0_a03 or above to provide the FEMA IPAWS
interface. The version number shown in the upper right-hand box is only the first portion of the entire version number.
Clicking on the version number will take you to the "About" page where you will see the "whole" version number. You can
download the latest version at

configured your DASDEC to. Here is how to save that configuration:
1. Log into the DASDEC.
2. Go to Setup > Sever > Configuration Mgmt
3. To ensure the latest configuration is stored click on the
current date and time as the initial part of the file name. An example backup file may

4. Look for the title List of Configuration Backup Files and the pull down selector directly below.
5. Select the file created in step 3 above. The list is sorted numerically (from earliest date at the top) then
alphabetically
6. The screen will refresh and the selected file will be queued in the blue hyperlink area
7. Right click on the file name will present a list of options.
