It looks for a special file in public documents that has a “license” digitally signed with the hard drive label, a network card MAC address, or a serial number in the special USB. On later editions there is a Factorytalk Server. You are stuck with the unstable DDE or slightly more stable OPC ones. None of the *Logix software cares because it just grabs data via the proprietary port. So you might find yourself looking for an older version. I forgot the exact version (3.5.1?) but it won’t run on CPR-9 if it’s too new. Newer versions of Factorytalk overwrite everything so you need to delete that garbage if you are using key disks. There is no “licensing”…it just works.ĬPR 9 is 32 bit only and not officially supported but works on Windows 7 but XP is better. The EVMOVE application lets you move licenses around.
When the software starts it searches all drives for licenses and if none are found it uses a key disk. The original key disks had some sectors purposely corrupted and will work as licenses even if there is no licenses left. This is absolutely taboo on the bout drive in current Windows versions. Not sure what you mean by “dongle” but in CPR 9 and earlier it used a “key disk” scheme which I believe even works on USB drive because I have a USB with it on it! You can move the licenses between any hard drives…it writes the licenses to hidden files on the root directory of the drive. You can even “convert” the old laptop into a VM. FactoryTalk Activation Manager creates or updates the XML data file at the specified location.Best thing to do is run things in VMs.
A data file contains the binding information of a computer.
