Note
Interruption of the test license
A test license period is interrupted in the following cases:
● If no axis is operated actively, e.g. during simulation mode.
● If a new valid license key is entered.
● If all non-licensed options are reset.
The test license continues when a non-licensed option is set again.
Note
End of the test license
A test license period ends when the time has expired.
No further test license can be activated on the NCU if all test license periods have expired.
