Disk using the same general procedure as follows.
Otherwise, the file will be corrupted and you will not
be able to run RSLinx in the OEM mode.
Before you attempt to move the activation file, you
MUST exit all ProcessLogix applications and stop all
ProcessLogix services. Refer to Stopping ProcessLogix
Applications and Services on page 8-1.
Do not manually copy or move the evrsi.sys file.
Moving/coping the evrsi.sys file will disable the OEM
version of RSLinx.
Always use the EVMOVE.EXE program to move the
evrsi.sys file. If the evrsi.sys file is corrupted or
manually moved, resulting in RSLinx changing to Lite
version, you can visit the Rockwell web site
(http://suppport.automation.rockwell.com/resetcodes/
) to recover the RSLinx activation.
