Licensing

Description
To use the SINAMICS S120 drive system and the activated options, you need to
assign the corresponding licenses to the hardware. When doing so, you receive a
license key, which electronically links the relevant option with the hardware.
The license key is an electronic license stamp that indicates that one or more soft-
ware licenses are owned.
Actual customer verification of the license for the software that is subject to license
is called a certificate of license.
Note
Refer to the order documentation (e.g. catalogs) for information on basic functions
and functions subject to license.
An insufficient license is indicated via the following alarm and LED on the Control
Unit:
S A13000
S READY LED
Notice
The drive can only be operated with an insufficient license during commissioning
and servicing.
The drive requires a sufficient license in order for it to operate normally.
Option performance 1
Option performance 1 (order no.: 6SL3074-0AA01-0AA0) is required as of a CPU
runtime utilization greater than 50%. As of a CPU runtime utilization greater than

green/red at 0.5 Hz.
