3 Installation

The PolyKB uses an USB-eLicenser dongle. You must have this dongle connected to a USB port on

your computer to make the PolyKB work.

Important

: Please take care of your dongle: you need it to run the PolyKB and it carries your license!

Please Note: Even if you have already installed the eLicenser drivers for a previous product, please

install the latest version of the eLicenser License Control.

To download the latest eLicenser Control Center (eLC), please go to:

http://www.steinberg.net/en/company/technologies/elicenser.html

You need a PolyKB Activation Code to load your license onto the dongle:

First, plug your dongle into a USB port of your computer. Then launch the eLicenser Control Center.

Select Enter authorization code. Enter your Activation Code in the reserved field, and press Next.

Wait for the license to be downloaded and then check to see if the license is correctly loaded on the

dongle in the main section of the License Control Center.

With the iLok version of the PolyKB, you need to plug an iLok USB key into your computer or

authorize the so-called soft-location (for not needing the USB hardware iLok device)

After downloading and installing the latest PACE drivers, please login and drag the PolyKB license to

the location of your choice (computer or iLok device. Two independent locations are allowed)

To download the latest PACE drivers, please go to:

To install the PolyKB III on Windows 7 and later, launch the PolyKB III installer file

polykb_II_eLicenser_win_setup_VXXX.exe or polykb_II_ilok_win_setup_VXXX.exe.

Please download the latest version from the XILS-lab website

(download->selected product->full installers)

Once you have accepted the license agreement, you will be asked to select the installation directory and

provided with a default one. Presets and various files, like this manual, used by the PolyKB will be stored

in this directory. Please note that this location is different from the VST install directory, which you will

need to specify in the next step of the installer.
