Licenses & Upgrades
8.1.
About Licensing
The functionality of the receiver depends on the hardware options fitted and
the software options installed. Software options are enabled or disabled by
means of ‘license keys’.
A license key is a string of numbers which, when downloaded to a unit, will
enable a specific feature or feature set.
8.2.
Obtaining New Licenses
You can add features to your unit by purchasing additional licenses from your
local Vislink representative.
NOTE: Before ordering the license(s), you will need to provide the required
ESN (Electronic Serial Numbers) and hardware serial numbers as
requested on the webpage. See
Section 6.4 Info
to locate electronic
serial numbers. Hardware serial numbers are located on the unit’s
chassis.
To verify which licenses are already installed and enabled on your unit see
Section 6.4.2 License Information.
