Creating a license key

The WEB License Manager informs you about how many and which licenses are assigned to
your memory card. If you need additional licenses, you can create a new license key using
the WEB License Manager and assign it to your memory card.
Note
A new license is not required for upgrading the firmware. Therefore, do not delete the license
key from the memory card (..\KEYS\SINAMICS\KEYS.txt) if you want to upgrade.
The following information is required to work with the "WEB License Manager":
● Serial number for the memory card
The serial number is on the memory card or can be copied from the license overview.
● License number and delivery note number of the license (shown on the Certificate of
License)
