This section provides background information about Desigo CC Licensing feature.
15.1 Licensing Reference
The Desigo CC software requires a valid license to run. Typically, the license is
stored on the Desigo CC Server.
Generally, a valid customer license includes:
● A set of license features to cover the hardware configuration of the system and
the site, such as the number of client stations or field points.
● A set of option license features to enable additional or extended functionality,
such as Assisted Treatment or Reactions.
See License Features List [➙ 389].
Depending on the license found on the server, the Desigo CC clients may run in
the following ways:
● If a valid and sufficient license is found, the Desigo CC Client will run normally,
with full functionality. See Normal License Mode [➙ 390].
● If no valid license is found, the Desigo CC Client can only run for 30 minutes.
See Demo License Mode [➙ 391].
● If there is a valid license but it is not sufficient (for example, it does not cover all
the field points in the management platform) then the Desigo CC Client can
operate for a maximum of 30 days. See Courtesy License Mode [➙ 391].
