Weidmüller Software License Agreement Version 1.0
Page 2
transferable rights to revise and to compile the Software as far as applicable and mandatory legal
provisions prevent WM from the exclusion of such right; any further right to revise or to compile
is excluded. The right to use and exploit is limited to the purposes described in these Terms,
especially as specified by the Purpose of Use.
4.2 The right to use and exploit and the right to copy the user documentation are limited to internal
purposes. Customer may make printouts and/or additional copies provided that these printouts
and/or copies are solely used for internal purposes.
4.3 In the event Software is not Firmware, the following applies: The right to copy the Software
is limited to the installation of the Software on a single computer system which is in Customer’s
immediate possession and to fulfill the Purpose of Use. Customer may not use the Software on a
computer system with more than one CPU or on additional virtual machines without WM’s explicit
written authorization. Customer may copy the Software as far as this is required for the loading,
display, running, transfer or storage of the Software on the computer system after the installation.
Customer is entitled to make one copy for security backup purposes if and as required by
applicable and mandatory legal provisions.
4.4 If Software is not Firmware: Customer may not sell, transfer or distribute the Software or
transfer the rights granted under these Terms to a 3
rd
party unless the Software is incorporated
in Customer’s products and such products are sold, transferred or otherwise distributed or unless
authorized. Customer shall ensure that all obligations under these Terms are passed on to the 3
rd
party to which Customer’s products are sold or otherwise distributed. Customer may not retain
any licensed material after the transfer.
5. PURPOSE OF USE
5.1 Firmware: Firmware is provided to be run on a specific device. Customer may use Firmware
only for purposes of using the Weidmüller hardware product device and only in accordance with
the purpose and within the specifications of such device. The other way round, a Weidmüller
hardware product device may only be used by using the Weidmüller Firmware and only in
accordance with the Firmware’s purpose.
5.2 The following applies to Software other than Firmware: Because the Software is designed to
run or be incorporated in a hardware product, WM licenses the Software to Customer for
incorporation in Customer’s products and Customer may only sell, transfer or otherwise distribute
the Software if it is combined with, or incorporated in, Customer’s product. Because the Software
is designed to be used on a single computer system identified by, among others, its central
processing unit (“CPU”), Customer shall only use the Software on one CPU. If the CPU or the
other hardware components are changed Customer may have to request new license keys from
WM.
5.3 Specific types of engineering Software: Only in the event the documentation contains a
description of the interfaces provided for such purposes such as, but not limited to, defined APIs,
Customer may connect the Software to other software, i.e. facilitating interoperability. Otherwise,
Customer shall not modify, translate, or otherwise edit and transform the Software. Neither shall
Customer retranslate the Software into the form of source programs or other modes of
presentation. Any retranslation of parts the Software for making an independently developed
program interoperable with the Software shall be subject to the applicable legal provisions and
any WM restrictions.
