  1. Run LicSetup.exe from  \Program Files\ABBYY Lingvo 8.0 (the network folder where ABBYY Lingvo was installed). The Add License dialog will be displayed. 
  2. Enter the additional serial numbers and click the Add button. 

Note: 

  1. If you have a large number of licenses, you can use a .txt-file to input your serial numbers from.
