Image Licenses

Image licenses are licenses required for image conversion done by the links. The image types needing a

license are:

Postscript

PCL

GIF

PDF

Every time a TC/Link does file conversion this action is registered on TCOSS. If a registration is already

used for the workstation hosting the TC/Link, it will be used again. If there is no registration available, the

conversion will not be done.

11.4.5

Directory Synchronization and File Type Recognition

Directory synchronization is licensed per system whereas it was licensed per workstation in the old mode.

There is no change done to the file type recognition license in the new mode.

11.5 Server Licensing

You get a license for every single server feature you want to use.

Note: If TCOSS is running in restricted mode and you add the missing licenses via the License Tool,

TCOSS must be restarted to leave the restricted mode.

11.5.1

Channels and Disk Size

TC/Links or TFC based applications do not use up any channels. There is also no other type of application

that uses up any channels. The new licensing does not provide any restrictions to disk size.

11.5.2

Channel Licenses

There are 6 types of different channel licenses:

FAX channel licenses

VOICE channel licenses

FAX/VOICE channel licenses

TELEX channel licenses

SMS channel licenses

VOICE IP PORT licenses

A FAX channel license for x fax channels allows the use of x fax channels on TCOSS. The same principle

applies to the VOICE and the TELEX channel license.

A FAX/VOICE channel license allows the use of a fax or a voice channel.

An SMS channel license allows you to operate a GSM box connected to TCOSS by a TC/Link-WM. There

is no license necessary for using the TC/Link-WM, the SMS channel is licensed per GSM box.
