License and Options Forms interactions
The software license contains a set of information known as a feature mask. The content of the feature
mask controls what features are enabled or may be enabled on the product. There are several types of
entries in the feature mask:
•
Type I Entry
•
Type II Entry
•
Type III Entry
Type I entries
Type I entries relate to those types of features that have a simple on/off state. An example is “DCS Call
Coverage.” It is either enabled or not. Each Type I entry has two variables associated with it:
•
A value
•
A lock
Variables are always locked either On of Off by the License File. Four combinations are possible with
meanings as shown in
Table 136, Type I Feature License Behavior, on page 245.
