The following conditions must be fulfilled:
S HMI Basic is installed on the computer (PC/PG) on which the Automation
License Manager is running.
S The IP addresses of the SINUMERIK control systems with which the Au-
tomation License Manager must communicate are known.
Perform the following actions when creating user–specific communication pa-
rameters for the first time:
1. Create the text file:
<Installation drive>:\Siemens\Sinumerik\HMI–Advanced\user\MMC.INI if it
does not already exist.
2. Open the file MMC.INI with a text editor.
3. Copy the [GLOBAL] section from the table given above: ”User–specific file:
MMC.INI” to the open file MMC.INI.
4. Copy the [AddressParameter] section from the table given above: ”User–
specific file: MMC.INI” to the open file MMC.INI according to the number of
available SINUMERIK control systems.
5. For all [AddressParameter] sections replace the string: ”AddressParameter”
with a unique name.
6. In all [AddressParameter] sections replace the string: ”IP–Address” with the
relevant IP address for the corresponding SINUMERIK control system.
7. In the [GLOBAL] section replace the string: ”AddressParameter” with the
section name for the SINUMERIK control system with which the Automation
License Manager should communicate after booting. (See note ”Changing
the IP address” above.)
Perform the following actions to change the active control system (online), i.e.,
the SINUMERIK control system with which the Automation License Manager
communicates:
1. Close the Automation License Manager.
(See note ”Changing the IP address” above.)
2. Open the file: <Installation drive>:\Siemens\Sinumerik\HMI–Ad-
vanced\user\MMC.INI with a text editor.
3. In the [GLOBAL] section, replace the current address string with the section
name for the SINUMERIK control system with which the Automation License
Manager should communicate after booting.
4. Start the Automation License Manager.
After booting the Automation License Manager communicates with the
SINUMERIK control system defined in the user–specific communication param-
eters.
The control system to which you have switched is represented by an ”online”
control system file in the navigation area of the Automation License Manager.
The control system to which the Automation License Manager was connected
before switching is represented by an ”offline” control system file, if a control
image (offline) exists.
