Selecting this command will open your web browser to a special page on the Diffraction Limited website. Opening this page will check and see what version of MaxIm DL is currently installed, and whether or not an upgrade is available. If an upgrade is available you will be given the option of downloading and installing it, provided that your license has not expired. If the latest upgrade is more recent than the expiry date of your license, you may download the newest upgrade for which you do qualify, or you can purchase a software subscription online.
This command transmits the serial number, expiry date, and version number of the copy of MaxIm DL you are running to our web site. This is required so that the web server can determine if an upgrade is available to you. The serial number is only used to prefill the appropriate field of the software subscription form in the event you decide to purchase one. None of this information is recorded unless a purchase is made.
