  2. #1 Rule:Always work with your local Schneider Sales Representative to properly price and license your VijeoCitect SCADA licenses

  3. USB License Keys • Contain License CALs “Client Access Licenses” • CALs are shared across the network to any server that require it • Typical CALS: • Full License • Required to run an IO / Alarm / Report / Trend server • Includes 1 client license which can run locally on the server(Or can be used by another computer if the Computer Setup Wizard Full License box is checked) • Client • Control Client • View Only Client • Web / Internet Control Client • Web / Internet View Only Client

  4. SCADA Point Count • Maximum number of runtime variable tags that can be used by your system • Memory or Disk variable do NOT count against your points

  5. Citect’s “Dynamic” Point Count • Citect / VijeoCitect 7.0 and higher use a “dynamic-point licensing” model (See Knowledgebase article Q4939 ) • Citect uses the Dynamic Runtime count of all tags used • Alarms • Trends • Reports • Events • Page Tags • Super Genies • TagRead() and TagWrite() Cicodefunctions • DDE, OPC, ODBC, ADO or the CTAPI (Historian) Dynamic Runtime Count

  6. Variable count != Point count • 1200 Variable Tags defined in your project may not require a 1200 point license. • The runtime Dynamic point count in your project is often much lower than your total variable count. WARNING:If the Runtime Dynamic Point Count is ever greater than the license’s point count, a license error will occur and Citect will shutdown. !

  7. Version Licensing Changes • V2.0 - V6.10 • V7.0, V7.10, V7.20 • V7.3+ Static Tag Count Compile Time Dynamic Runtime Count Sum of Dynamic Runtime Count of Each Process Dynamic Runtime Count

  8. Tag Count in Citect 7.3+ • No more “Double Point” counting in multi-process mode • Tags shared by different processes in multi-process mode will now be only counted once

  9. Viewing The Dynamic Count • Using the Citect Kernel’s “General” View you can see the current Dynamic count (you may need to resize the window)

  10. Helpful Citect.ini Parameters • [General]WatermarkedPointCountEnables displaying of “watermark messages” when the dynamic point count reaches the limit set points • [General]PointCountHighPercentage at which “watermark message” will be displayed • [General]PointCountHighHighPercentage at which a 2nd “watermark message” will be displayed • [General]PointLimitMsgDetermine weather Citect will stop the point limit from being exceeded or simply shutdown. *DISABLED BY DEFAULT

  11. Citect CAL License Types • Full Licenses • Control Client Licenses • Web Control Client Licenses • View-Only Client Licenses • Web View-Only Client Licenses • Speciality Drivers • Historian • Ampla

  12. Full Licenses • Full Licenses • A Full license is a scalable HMI/SCADA system that can be used across all industries. It provides users and Integrators a fullyfeatured, flexible HMI/SCADA system that includes over 100 drivers.

  13. How Citect Validates a License

  14. Example License Key • SCADA Point Count 42,000 • CALs for 1x Full Licenses, 1x Control Client, 1x View Only Client …

  15. 1 Full + Dongle key Per Server • Each Physically Separated Server will Require 1 Full License 4 Servers = 4 Dongle Keys with 4 full licenses 42,000SCADA POINTCOUNT = 4 Full Licenses 1 Display Client 41,392 IO POINTS

  16. Required License Key • Here is the required license key for 41,392 points, 4 Servers and 1 Control Client We will need 4 licenses with this configuration X 4

  17. Client Licenses • Clients typically retrieve their licenses from the IO Server’s license key 42,000SCADA POINTCOUNT 1 Full LicenseWith 6 Client CALs 38,832 IO POINTS

  18. Required License Key • Here is the required license key for 38,832 points, 1 Server and 6 Control Client We only have 1 server so we only need 1 key with 6 client CALs

  19. Software Keys • In Citect / VijeoCitect 7.30 we now have the option of using Software keys • Please contact your local Schneider Sales Representative for more details.

  20. Pricing Citect Licensing • Three Components to Citect Licenses: • Support Units • License Price • USB Key Price

  21. Support Units Listed next to the license price of all software is a “Support Unit”. Multiply the support units by the associated dollar support level price. SUPPORT UNIT x UNIT COST

  22. Support Unit Types • Silver • Citect Upgrades Not Provided • Gold • Upgrades Provided • Day time support only • Gold Plus • Upgrades Provided • 24 / 7 Support

  23. Support Unit Part Numbers • VJC = Vijeo Citect SCADA • CIT = Citect SCADA

  24. Support Unit Part Example • 1500 Point Full License Citect SCADA • Gold Plus Support

  25. Sample Support Unit Calculation $$$ $

  26. Solution Support Unit Calculation 84 Support UnitsX$ per Gold Plus Unit

  27. Single Key Version Upgrade Only • Allows the customer to do a one-time upgrade to the latest version and does not include access to the website or Technical Support Engineers. • The upgrade only can be purchased on an individual key but must purchase upgrade for all licenses on the key.

  28. Support Reinstatement • If a site has expired more than 3 months then a reinstatement fee applies. This is because upgrades are included in the Gold or GoldPlus Support Offerings. • In addition, the first year of Gold or GoldPlus Support must be purchased and then the new support dates will be valid a year from purchase date.
