Licensing for Station Setup

Station Setup is a special version of the ToolsTalk 2 software, where all components are located on the machine versus the traditional setup where the back-end is run on a dedicated server and the clients connect to the server.

The Station Setup also runs without a SQL server database connection and there is a built in limit of one connected controller at a time. Hence there is no need for licensing on number of connected controllers, but on the other hand it is a limited possibility for a customer to install it on more than one PC (without buying more licenses).

The licensing for ToolsTalk 2 Station Setup is handled by a 3rd party component from Flexera. The licensing component maintains a local trusted storage on the machine running the ToolsTalk 2 Station Setup. The path to the trusted storage is: C:\ProgramData\Atlas Copco\ToolsTalk StationSetup\License
