Question: I have 3 dongles for Fusion, 1 with Primatte and 2 without. I want to move them around without having to move license DFusion.dat files as well.

Answer: Just create a Super-Dat file.

1) Collect each of your license files, and rename them to the corresponding serial number. (ie 12345678.dat, 23456789.dat, 34567891.dat)

2) In notepad, copy and paste each of your licenses into the document. Pay attention to the formatting of the license itself. Do not modify it or it will not work.

3) Save the file into your Fusion, Vision, Rotation or DFX+ installation and call it DFusion.dat

Now you can swap the dongles between machines depending on which version you need to run (ie the one for Primatte) This will allow fusion to load any license contained in the Super-Dat depending on which dongle is plugged into the machine.
