Licensing Requirements

The following scenarios describe the behavior of HMI for CNC device communications and the CNC Alarm process with and without licensing:

  • If the base product, HMI/SCADA CIMPLICITY, is not licensed, HMI for CNC is also not licensed. CIMPLICITY will run in a two hour demonstration mode; however, the Router will shut down any HMI for CNC device communications and the HIM for CNC Alarm process.
  • If the base product, HMI/SCADA CIMPLICITY, is licensed, but HMI for CNC is not licensed, HMI for CNC device communications and the HMI for CNC Alarm process will shut down immediately.
  • If the base product, HMI/SCADA CIMPLICITY, is licensed and HMI for CNC is also licensed, HMI for CNC will run for the number of purchased licenses.

Consult your GE representative for detailed information about HMI for CNC software licensing.

Consult your FANUC representative for detailed information about hardware.
