For certain devices, activation is required in order to add and use them in the PowerView4. You can add activated devices to the device configuration of your PowerView4 in the Device Setup view (see section Adding a Device).
The PowerView4 HMI modules are activated differently ex works. In certain cases, you may retrofit additional devices by purchasing one or more software dongles from your MOTORTECH contact person (see Customer Service Information). With these software dongles, you then activate the respective devices in your PowerView4. After activation, you can add the devices to the device configuration of your PowerView4.
Software dongles are tied to the respective PowerView4 via the serial number. For retrofitting your PowerView4 with a software dongle, you need to specify its serial number. You can find the serial number on the device label of your PowerView4 (see section Product Identification – Labeling on the Device) or display it in the PowerView4 in the Display Information view (see section Display).
If you have received a software dongle from MOTORTECH, proceed as follows to activate the respective device in the PowerView4:
Activating multiple devices If you have multiple software dongles for device activation, you can alternatively copy the software dongles into one folder on the USB flash drive. Then mark this folder in the device activation selection window so that the PowerView4 reads all the software dongles that are in this folder. |
