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

This path applies to LumiScan runtimes and vision apps that you bought in the Bosch Rexroth ctrlX Store and run natively on ctrlX OS, either on a ctrlX CORE or on an IPC with ctrlX OS (for example a Bosch Rexroth ctrlX IPC). The LumiScan Key and CodeMeter Runtime are not used.

## How it works

- Each LumiScan app needs its own ctrlX licence. Its part number is listed in [Licence Reference](https://docs.hdvisionsystems.com/en/lumiscan-licensing/1.0.4/licence-reference.html) and on the **Requirements** page of the app’s manual.
- You buy the licence in the ctrlX Store and activate it in the License Manager of ctrlX OS. Follow the Bosch Rexroth documentation for ctrlX OS.
- The licence must be available on the ctrlX OS device on which the app runs.

## Behaviour of the apps

- When the app starts, it reserves the licences it needs. While it runs, it renews them every 30 minutes.
- If a required licence is missing, the app stops shortly after starting. The reason is written to the ctrlX OS system log.
- If a licence is no longer available while the app is running, the app stops.
- Some apps need more than one licence, for example LumiScan CamDriver needs one licence per camera. See [Counting rules](https://docs.hdvisionsystems.com/en/lumiscan-licensing/1.0.4/licence-reference.html#counting-rules).
