How to Activate the DDL License
The Dynamic Digital Linearization (DDL) feature must be expressly ordered (order# E-710.SCN). You
can activate DDL after purchase and without opening the device.
To activate the DDL license, proceed as follows:
1.
Order DDL for your controller and inform PI of the controller serial number—PI generates your
DDL license number based on this information.
The serial number is saved in the controller as the
Device S/N
parameter, ID 0x0D000000.
You can read it in PIMikroMove or using the SPA? or SEP? command:
Send:
SPA? 1 0x0D000000
(reads the value from volatile memory)
or
Send:
SEP? 1 0x0D000000
(reads the value from nonvolatile memory)
2.
PI will provide you with the DDL license number.
3.
Switch to command level 1 using the CCL command:
Send:
CCL 1 advanced
4.
Write the DDL license number to the nonvolatile memory of your controller as the
DDL License
parameter, ID 0x0E000400.
You can do this in PIMikroMove or using the SEP command:
Send:
SEP 100 1 0x0E000400
licensenumber
5.
Power cycle the controller.
6.
Check if the DDL activation was successful. To do this, read the value of the
DDL License Valid
parameter, ID 0x0E000401 in PIMikroMove or using SPA? or SEP?.
Send:
SPA? 1 0x0E000401
or
Send:
SEP? 1 0x0E000401
DDL activation was successful if the parameter value is 1. Otherwise the DDL feature is still
deactivated.
If the DDL activation fails:
Check if the correct serial number was used for license number generation.
Check whether the correct license number was entered into controller memory:
Send:
SEP? 1 0x0E000400
Make sure that command level 1 is active during license activation.
