TwinCAT licensing via the I/O system: The EL6070 Terminal as your hardware licence key

EL6070 licence key terminal for TwinCAT 3.1 licence management

TwinCAT 3.1 licences are issued for specific hardware. Instead of an Industrial PC, you can use the EL6070 Terminal as a hardware licence key. It provides more flexibility, for example when the Industrial PC needs to be replaced.

In this 30-minute seminar, TwinCAT Product Manager Carsten Brunotte talks about licensing policies, usage scenarios, and how to best integrate the EL6070 into the TwinCAT 3.1 software system.
