Whenever you purchase additional features or request a trial license, you must install a new transmitter
license. The new license makes the new features available on your transmitter. For concentration
measurement and API referral, you may still need to enable the application.

If you are planning to use the USB drive, the service port must be enabled. It is enabled by default. However, if
you need to enable it, choose Menu → Configuration → Security and set Service Port to On.
Procedure
• To install a license using the display:
a) Copy the license file to a folder on a USB drive.
