ELM license Information
An ELM license is registered to an email address linked to one individual or company. This allows the license owner to register the license to one computer at a time by login into a website portal.
Note: If you want to run multiple computers simultaneously (including active and backup computers, you will need to purchase additional licenses per computer.
Each ELM license enables up to 3 activations on different computers/hardware IDs (unless otherwise stated below) to provide peace of mind if the initial computer stops working.
- 70581-PRO (PROFESSIONAL 96U) license allows up to 4 activations
- 70581-SUP (SUPER 256U) license allows up to 4 activations
- 70581-ULT (ULTIMATE 512U) license allows up to 4 activations
- 70581-ARC (ARCHITECTURAL 1024U) license allows up to 4 activations
- 70581-ELT (ELITE 2048U) license allows up to 4 activations
An ELM license activation isn’t transferrable, meaning a license cannot be deactivated from one computer and moved to another. Registering ELM on another computer will use one of the license activations.
Note: The computer's Hardware ID is linked to your computer’s CPU and motherboard. You can upgrade any other components and reinstall the OS without invalidating your license.
You can stack multiple licenses on the same computer to get more DMX universes; for example, two 8U licenses can be stacked onto one ELM computer to allow 16 universes of output.
Complimentary ELM license
We are currently running a special promotion where you can apply for a complimentary ELM license when purchasing an ENTTEC pixel controller. The license will unlock the number of universes that the pixel controller can output; for example, ENTTEC's Octo can output 8 universes, therefore, you can apply for an 8-universe license.
