Guided Wave Technology’s software End User License Agreement for the Filter and Coupling Matrix Synthesis tool (CMS)

This End User License Agreement (“License”) is an agreement between You and Guided Wave Technology ApS ("GWT").
This License governs your use of this software and all documentation and updates.
By installing or using CMS, you consent to be bound by this License.
If you do not agree to all of the terms of this License, then do not install or use CMS.

IF YOU INSTALL CMS, THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS LICENSE ARE FULLY ACCEPTED BY YOU.
If you do not agree to any portion of this License, do not install or use CMS.

1. License Grant and Terms of Use.

A. Grant. GWT grants you a personal license to install and use CMS on two (2) computers provided that only one CMS installation is used at a time - and by You as the sole user. The term of your license shall commence on the date that You start to download, install or otherwise use CMS, and shall end on the earlier of the date that You dispose of CMS.
The license is perpetual meaning that after purchase You can use CMS in accordance with this Agreement at no further costs for as long as the installation is able to run.

B. Copies. You may not install or make CMS available on a network where it could be used by multiple users.

C. License Validation. CMS is node locked to a single computer by IDs obtained from the hardware on the computer where CMS is installed (example: MAC addresses). This lock is practically implemented by placing a unique license file in the CMS installation directory.
You acknowledge and agree that CMS may use information regarding your computer and hardware for creating this license file.
You acknowledge and agree that CMS can automatically validate license rights without separate notice to you.
The license file is created by GWT and is forwarded to you by E-mail after CMS has been installed. Creation of the license file requires that you forward - by E-mail - a specific file to GWT. This file is created when CMS is run the first time after installation and contains the above mentioned hardware IDs.

  D. Reservation of Rights and Restrictions. CMS is licensed to You for use only under the terms of this License.
You may not decompile, disassemble, or reverse engineer CMS by any means whatsoever

  E. Installation and Un-installation. Un-installation of the Application can be via the “Add/Remove Programs” page in the Control Panel.

 

  2. Updates and Maintenance
GWT will provide updates on an as needed basis and is therefore not bound to provide updates on a regular basis.
GWT provides free support for 1 year after the purchasing date of CMS.
By “support” is here meant:
(i)   A
ccess to latest CMS version.
(ii)  Access to new license files and/or installer files when needed.
(iii) Instructions on matters relating to installation and operation of the software.

  After one year from the purchasing date it is possible to enrol in GWT’s maintenance scheme.
Enrolment in this scheme gives You continued access to the above mentioned support.
Enrolment in this scheme is not mandatory, but is offered when the 1 year free support period comes to an end.
Later enrolment to the maintenance scheme will be possible by paying the total accumulated maintenance fee counted from the day the included 1 year free support period ended.
The maintenance fee associated with this scheme is charged on a yearly basis in December for the coming year. The fee is independent of the number of licenses You may have.

Examples of changes that may require new license files are hardware configuration changes to the computer where CMS is installed and reinstallation of the operating system. Other reasons that necessitate the need for new license files may exist.
The terms and conditions of this Agreement shall apply to any upgrades, updates, bug fixes or modified versions or additional copies of the Software. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, You have no license or right to use any such Updates or additional copies unless You, at the time of acquiring them, already hold a valid license to the Software associated with such Updates and have paid any required Fees for such Software

  3. Third Party Software
CMS only runs on Windows operating systems (Win 7 and newer) and must have Java (JRE 1.8 or newer) installed in the 32 bit version.

  4. Termination.
This License is effective until terminated. Your rights under this License will terminate immediately and automatically without any notice from GWT
if (i) you fail to comply with any of the terms and conditions of this License; or (ii) GWT ceases to support CMS.
