Managing Feature Keys
RUGGEDCOM ROX II can be enhanced with additional features at any time by adding feature levels. Feature
levels are encoded in feature keys that can be loaded on a device. At the time of ordering, a device feature key
is encoded into the electronic signature of the device. This feature key is independent of the compact flash card
or USB Mass Storage drive, and is retained by the device itself should the card be replaced. Additional file-based
feature keys can be added as needed.
NOTE
Some RUGGEDCOM ROX II features are only available through the purchase of feature levels. For more
information about the available feature levels, refer to the product data sheet for the device available
at https://www.siemens.com/ruggedcom or contact a Siemens Sales representative.
NOTE
File-based feature keys can be used on different devices. To tie a feature key to a specific device,
contact a Siemens Canada Ltd Sales representative to arrange for an RMA (Return to Manufacturer
Authorization) to program the feature key into the device.
When ordering feature levels, make sure to provide the main serial numberand cm serial number for the device.
An upgraded feature key file will be provided that is licensed to the device. For information on how to determine
the main serial numberand cm serial number, refer to Section4.1, “Displaying Device and Software Information”.
