Cobalt Digital COMPASS 9220 Bidirectional ASI_MPTS Gateway - Manual (Page 55)

55 9220-UM V1.1
Admin License Keys Tab
The 9220 has a number of optional licensable features. The Admin License Keys Tab is used to
manage these features. Using this tab, you can see how many licenses you have for each
optional feature, and how many you are currently using.
The 9220 has the concept of a temporary license. If you want to try out a certain feature, contact
Cobalt Digital Inc. You will receive a license key that enables that feature for a specific period
of running time (license time does not “count” when the card is off).
The Admin License Keys Tab includes a License Status table, and a configuration area, as shown
below. The table rows are license counts, and the columns correspond to different licensable
features. The rows are:
•
Permanent Licenses: This is the number of non-expiring licenses for each feature.
•
Temporary Licenses: This is the number of temporary licenses for each feature. Once
the license period expires, they are removed.
•
Total Licenses: This is the total number of licenses for each feature. It is simply the sum
of the permanent and temporary licenses.
•
Used Licenses: This is the number of licenses in use for each feature by the current card
configuration.
If you have temporary licenses, the Time Remaining field indicates how long until they expire.
If you do not have temporary licenses, this field has the message “No active temporary licenses”.
The table columns correspond to the licensable features, as follows:
•
Enable GE2: Use of Ethernet Port 2 is subject to licensing. Only one license is required
to enable the port. This field will have 1 if Ethernet Port 2 is licensed or in use.
•
TS Outputs: The 9220 requires one license per transport stream output (ASI or IP). This
column provides a count of outputs licensed and in use.
•
The remaining columns correspond to features not yet available. Cobalt Digital Inc. if
you need more information, or if you want to be notified when they become available.
