Licenses of asix packages differ by their functionality (operator station, operator server, engineering station, terminal) and limit of variables serviced. Below one can find information how to determine the number of variables allowed within a license:
 

• one analog measurement = one variable within license limit

• one 8, 16 or 32 bit register = one variable within license limit

• one table element (8, 16 or 32 bit) = one variable within license limit

• one internal (local) variable = one variable within license limit

• one internal (local) table variable = one variable within license limit

• variable from NONE channel, not archived = does not apply to license limit

• variable in network channel = does not apply to license limit*

*) It doesn’t apply to operator station with 32 variable limit as well as computers that make data available with use of GATEWAY function.

ATTENTION - one 8, 16 or 32 bit register can transfer information about 8, 16 or 32 digital signals. The register could be split into separate signals at the level of visualization dynamic objects. Using such approach, 32 digital signals will occupy only one variable within the license limit.
