AADvance WorkbenchLicensing Options

You can use the AADvance Workbench for a trial period of 30 days with a

promotional license. To use a fully operational version you must purchase a license key

from Rockwell Automation. License keys come in two forms:

T9082/3U Single User Hardware License: a hardware license key is a dongle

that is delivered with the software. To activate the license you insert the dongle

into the USB port of your computer. This type of license allows the license to be
moved to other PC's, but only the PC with the USB Dongle installed will allow the

Workbench to be started.

T9082/3D Single User Software License: a software license key (hard disk

key) is obtained and activated through the AADvance License Manager. This

type of license establishes the license on a specific PC or another PC, but only the

PC with the software key activated will allow the Workbench to be started.

When you purchase a single user license you can choose from the following feature

sets:

T9082 Multiscan (PRS): Single user, single controller license.

T9083 Distributed (PRD): Single user, multiple controllers license.

Network licenses are also available:

T9084U Network User License: A network license (USB dongle) allows the
users to license copies of the AADvance Workbench on PC's so long as they have

a continuous network connection to a central license server.

Install the AADvance Workbench and Utilities

When Installing a single user license you do not need to install the License Manager
separately unless you are running a network installation; You just need to run the

License Manager to activate or enable a license.
