Our license module in the SmartManager is robust and easy to use.  Licensing protocol is required for every type of robot. Thus, the license will be dynamically allocated for each run-time, depending on the run-time status. 

All licenses are centrally stored and managed from the SmartManager license common pool.  The SmartManager allocates licenses based on run-time Status.

It monitors and tracks each run-time against status such as:

• • Allocate
  • Idle
  • Running and
  • To-Check

Such activities are done with the aid of the License Management menu.
