A single serial number does not allow you to legally install it on as many machines as you like. You can install it on several computers provided it is only used on one computer at a time and not used on multiple computers simultaneously. If you need several people to use it at the same time you need multiple licenses.

If you purchase a license one year of the SSP is included. You can use that key for prior versions of LabVIEW.

Not quite.   See your ni sales rep but my understanding is...

Named user license.... installed on up to 3 machines plus HUL only the named user can use it and on only 1 machine at a time.

Computer based license.. installed on only one machine multiple users can access it one at a time no HUL key.

This is not intended as legal advice in interperating your EULA with NI but consistant with my experience.

That is what I said Jeff. The EULA allows it to be installed on multiple computers provided it is not used on more than one at any point in time. I just didn't specify the exact number of computers specified.

Thanks.  I am the only one that would be using the full development version, all other installations would be applications, not using the development copy.

You should be using the application builder to deploy the applications. I don't think the licensing allows you to install LabVIEW on multiple computers and use the single license even if the other computers are only running an application and not being used for development. The license is still being used concurrently.

Not if it's a computer based license. 

But, the OP came back with details that would suggest it would be wise for them to register as a named user key.

In the past, I had lv installed on multiple computers, and had a programming computer that I would use.  For the last application, I used application builder to deploy the application, as you said.  In the future, I will only deploy applications, instead of installing the LV.

Thanks for the information.
