LumiScan Licensing explains how to license every LumiScan product in one place: installing, requesting, renewing and moving licences. Which path applies depends on where you bought the software and where it runs: the LumiScan Key for software bought from HD Vision Systems, ctrlX WORKS on Windows, or the ctrlX OS License Manager. Engineering apps are an annual subscription; runtimes and vision apps are a one-time purchase.
This manual explains how to license LumiScan software. It applies to every LumiScan product: the engineering apps (such as LumiScan Annotation Framework, LumiScan Training Framework and LumiScan VGR Engineering) and the runtimes and vision apps (such as LumiScan VGR, LumiScan CamDriver and the code readers).
The product manuals only state which licence a product needs. How to install, request, renew and move a licence is described here, once, for all products.
