# Bought in the ctrlX Store, Running on Windows – LumiScan Licensing

This path applies to LumiScan software that you bought in the Bosch Rexroth ctrlX Store and run on Windows 11: engineering apps (for example LumiScan Annotation Framework) as well as runtimes (for example LumiScan VGR or a vision app on a Windows IPC).

Two things are needed. They have different jobs:

|   | Job | Renewal |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Licence in ctrlX WORKS | Entitles you to use the app. | As agreed with Bosch Rexroth. |
| LumiScan Key | Protects the software against reverse engineering. It does not carry the licence. | None. It is updated only when you add a new LumiScan product. |

## What you need

- The licence for the app, bought in the ctrlX Store and activated in ctrlX WORKS. Follow the Bosch Rexroth documentation for ctrlX WORKS.
- A LumiScan Key. You buy it in the Bosch Rexroth store. It is delivered with a basic setup.
- CodeMeter Runtime 9.00 or later (see [Installing CodeMeter Runtime](https://docs.hdvisionsystems.com/en/lumiscan-licensing/1.0.0/installing-codemeter.html)).

## Setting up

1. Install CodeMeter Runtime and connect the LumiScan Key (see [Installing CodeMeter Runtime](https://docs.hdvisionsystems.com/en/lumiscan-licensing/1.0.0/installing-codemeter.html)).
2. Activate the app licence in ctrlX WORKS.
3. Install and start the LumiScan app.

## Adding another LumiScan product

When you buy a further LumiScan product in the ctrlX Store for Windows 11, your LumiScan Key must be enabled for it once:

1. [Create a licence request](https://docs.hdvisionsystems.com/en/lumiscan-licensing/1.0.0/requesting-a-licence-update.html) from your LumiScan Key.
2. Send it to [licenses@hdvisionsystems.com](mailto:licenses@hdvisionsystems.com), together with your ctrlX Store order number and the product you added.
3. [Import the licence update](https://docs.hdvisionsystems.com/en/lumiscan-licensing/1.0.0/importing-a-licence-update.html) that you receive from HD Vision Systems.

There is no annual update of the LumiScan Key on this path.
