Licensed Blocks

From the Help menu, choose About to determine how many blocks you have
licensed.
The licensed block information appears below the Rockwell Software copyright.
When choosing an RSFieldbus license, keep in mind that a typical device
TIP
requires a minimum of three blocks (Resource, Transducer, and process
control) with an average of five blocks used. For example, a 64-block
RSFieldbus license will support approximately 21 devices. Any device
that requires more than three blocks will reduce the number of
supported devices.
The Main window contains a counter in the lower-right corner that lets you see
how many blocks you have in use.
