configure these applications using ROCLINK 800 or the DS800
Development Suite software.
The term "license key" refers to the physical piece of hardware (see
Figure 2-8 and Figure 2-9) that can contain up to seven different
licenses. Each DL8000 can have none, one, or two installed license
keys. If you remove a license key after enabling an application, the
firmware disables the task from running. This prevents unauthorized
execution of protected applications in a DL8000.
: For the DL8000, license keys are a factory-installed option.
Note
Under normal operation, you should not need to install, remove,
or replace a license key.
To install a license key:
Failure to exercise proper electrostatic discharge precautions (such as
wearing a grounded wrist strap) may reset the processor or damage
electronic components, resulting in interrupted operations.
When working on units located in a hazardous area (where explosive
gases may be present), make sure the area is in a non-hazardous state
before performing procedures. Performing these procedures in a
hazardous area could result in personal injury or property damage.
Back up critical data.
