General<\/span><\/span><\/strong>
<\/span><\/strong>The<\/span><\/span>\u00a0licenses for the\u00a0Engiby\u2019s<\/span>\u00a0libraries are bound to the PG5 licences. Usually the library is addressed to the\u00a0<\/span>System Integrator<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span>(SI). The SI is the company which owns a licensed version of PG5 and will install the additional library on PG5. If the Integrator AND the End User have got a different PG5 license and install the Engiby product on PG5, each of them must purchase a product license. With PG5 1.4, a license key for each library must be registered\u00a0when the library is installed<\/span>. Please read also the few restrictions at the end of this page.<\/span><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”0px||0px||true|false” custom_padding=”||0px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”0px||0px||true|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px||true|false” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

License Validity<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

The license keys are valid for one main version of PG5, e. g.: Versions 1.4.xxx or 2.1.xxx. An update or a new key will be required for the each main version.<\/span><\/p>\n

Within a delay of 12 months from the delivery of a driver or an update (free update excluded) for PG5 1.4, you can ask for a free update and a key for PG5 2.0.
In other words, Engiby ensure that a driver can be used\u00a0at least one year\u00a0<\/span>without being invoiced for a new license key. This is only valid for products with unlimited licence, and up to 3 main versions.
<\/span><\/p>\n

Registration procedure
<\/span><\/span><\/strong>In the following procedure we base on the assumption that you have got a official and licensed version of PG5 1.4 (V 1.4.100 or higher) installed on your computer and you have used the register software feature of PG5 to install the key file you have got with PG5: User of Demo package, $-versions and Beta tester are no longer supported.<\/span><\/p>\n

The registration procedure is not the same as for PG5 1.2 and 1.3. When updating from PG5 1.3 to PG5 1.4, please read the chapter below.
Note also that this procedure is not valid for\u00a0Engiby\u2019s<\/span>\u00a0Add-On tools. Passwords for Add-On tool must be registered in the Add-On tool itself.<\/span><\/p>\n

1.\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>When you order an Engiby license or an update for PG5 version 1.4, send the\u00a0USER.KEY\u00a0<\/strong>file of the corresponding PG5 package to Engiby. This allows us to create a license key that matches with your PG5 license. Please send the file to<\/span>\u00a0Engiby.<\/span><\/p>\n

2.\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>The Integrator (or End User) is registered by Engiby and a\u00a0License key\u00a0<\/strong>is sent back.<\/span><\/p>\n

3.\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>Start the setup\u00a0of the concerned<\/span>\u00a0library. Select the installation for PG5 1.4. If you don\u2019t need to install the library but only enter the key, you can check the option \u2018License Key\u2019 and uncheck the option \u2018Library\u2019.<\/span><\/p>\n

4. Click Install.<\/span><\/p>\n

5.\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>When the dialogue box appears,<\/strong>\u00a0copy the received Key and click OK.<\/span><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/engiby.ch\/cms\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/image002.jpg” alt=”image002″ title_text=”image002″ _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”0px||0px||true|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px||true|false” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

Now you can build a project using the corresponding library.<\/span><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”0px||0px||true|false” custom_padding=”||0px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”0px||0px||true|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px||true|false” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

\u200bOther Conditions and Restrictions
<\/span><\/span><\/strong>You<\/span><\/span> need at least a version V 1.4.100 of the PG5 1.4. If you have a former version (Beta or $-version), please first update to the last version of PG5 1.4.<\/span><\/p>\n

License keys will not be created for package without a correct user name (E.g. package ‘For SAIA Internal use only’).<\/span><\/p>\n

The keys can be used only on the PC with the correct PG5 license (the one sent to\u00a0Engiby !<\/span>) but you are allowed to use it on other PCs as long as they have the same PG5 license. It means the PC is used inside the same company.<\/span><\/p>\n

In emergency cases, Engiby can provide an emergency Key, valid for any user name and any library, for a limited period. The emergency key is shorter and can be easily be transmitted by phone.<\/span><\/p>\n

On the same PG5 version, the same key is valid for several version of a library, as long as these versions are bound to the same license.
Example: M-Bus driver\u00a0version 2.5.005 use<\/span>\u00a0the same keys as the former version 2.5.001.<\/span><\/p>\n

Other example: Modbus
For modbus it is recommended working with the Modbus 2 package (version 2.7.xxx). If you only need to buil a project build with Modbus1 dirver (1.xx), first install the Modbus 2 package, and after that install the 1.8x version of Modbus 1 (which runs with the Modbus 2.7.xxx license).<\/span>
<\/span><\/p>\n

Note also that some libraries need a runtime license key (one license per PCD system).<\/span><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”0px||0px||true|false” custom_padding=”||0px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”0px||0px||true|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px||true|false” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

\u200bUpdating from PG5 1.3 to PG5 1.4
<\/span><\/span><\/strong>The<\/span><\/span>\u00a0user.key<\/span>\u00a0file you have received for PG5 1.3 is not valid for PG5 1.4. Also the passwords provided by Engiby for PG5 1.3 are not valid for PG5 1.4. See above the conditions for the delivery of free license key. Note also that\u00a0user.key<\/span> files created for $ or beta versions of PG5 1.4 will not be valid for official versions and service pack of PG5 1.4. Therefore you need to work with the lates PG5 1.4 version (or upgrade to 2.x).<\/span><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”0px||0px||true|false” custom_padding=”||0px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”0px||0px||true|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px||true|false” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

\u200bDemo license
<\/span><\/span><\/strong>Demo licenses of PG5 don\u2019t restrict the use of any library (including\u00a0Engiby’s<\/span>) but has only a time limitation (30 to 90 days). At each build you get a warning indicating the expiration date of the demo license.\u00a0Take\u00a0care !<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0A license key will be required when the personalized\u00a0user.key<\/span>\u00a0file will be installed.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u200bBeta tester and user of $-version
<\/span><\/span><\/strong>Beta tester and user of $-version for PG5 1.4 are no longer supported for the use together with Engiby libraries.<\/span><\/p>\n
