SINUMERIK 840Di sl Manual (HBIsl) – 01/2007 Edition
The direct access enables the direct assignment of licenses for which the
license numbers are available, e.g., in the form of a CoL. In the Web License
Manager you can also assign all other licenses provided in relation to this
delivery note.
S Customer login
The customer login occurs with:
– User name
– Password
The customer login enables the assignment of all the licenses available to
the user that are delivered at the time of the login and have not yet been
assigned to any hardware. Here, the license numbers of licenses that can
still be assigned need not be directly at hand, instead these are displayed
from within the license database.
Note
S You can obtain a customer login via Siemens A&D Mall at menu item:
”Registration”. The Internet address is:
http://mall.automation.siemens.com/
Currently, access is not yet possible for all countries.
S Browser settings for using the A&D Mall, see Section 17.1.8, Page 17-482.
As indicated above, only the license information in the license database repre-
sents the current status regarding a piece of hardware. Differences may arise
between the license information available for a piece of hardware and that of the
license database due to:
S loading older archive data into the NCK (data restoration from a series–com-
missioning file after a service job)
S assigning licenses to hardware without transferring the modified license in-
formation for the hardware control system (online)
As a result, a more limited license requirement (possibly no license require-
ment) may be displayed than indicated on the HMI user interface of the control
system for a license requirement alignment by Automation License Manager.
To align the license information, a transfer should be carried out for the current
license information of the license database for the hardware control system (on-
line).
