When you start Diamonds, Diamonds claims a license. But when you never calculate something, the license is automatically released again after 2h. Making it available for other user to claim. The 2h is a timespan defined by Codemeter which you cannot adjust.
Solution
[compatible with Diamonds 2024 or newer]As a work-around, you can define that Diamonds must claim the license again every X minutes. To do so:
- Close all Diamonds projects
- Go to My Documents > Diamonds. Depending on your operating system, the name ‘My Documents‘ can be ‘Documents‘.
- Open Diamonds.ini with Notepad.
- Search for [TMAINFORM_PREF]. If you cannot find it, go to the bottom of the document and add it.
- Add a line below it stating LIC_TIMER=2.
Meaning that the license will be claimed every 2 minutes. - Close Diamonds.ini and save changes.
- Start Diamonds.
