EL6071 | EtherCAT Terminal, license key for TwinCAT 3.1, 2nd generation
TwinCAT 3.1 offers the option of managing TwinCAT licenses via license key devices. The EL6071 embodies the hardware license key in the modular EtherCAT I/O system. It is equipped with a local data memory for storing TwinCAT 3.1 license files. Communication takes place via EtherCAT.
The device is also available as EL6071-0033 with ex-factory pre-installed licenses. The EL6071 and EL6071-0033 are two different devices in EtherCAT terms and therefore cannot be interchanged in the EtherCAT I/O configuration, unless the configuration is changed.
Security technology is constantly being developed to improve protection against attacks. Therefore, the 2nd generation Beckhoff license key products implement improved and updated cryptographic algorithms which pave the way for cryptographic agility and offer a presence sensor. They thus constitute a reliable, state-of-the-art license anchor. In addition, the 2nd generation provides time-based license functions through the optional RTC (real-time clock).
The device family includes:
- 2 EtherCAT Terminals for stationary use: EL6071 without RTC, EL6072 with battery-supported RTC
- 2 USB sticks for mobile use: C9900-L101 without RTC, C9900-L102 with battery-supported RTC
The 2nd generation will be supported in future TwinCAT 3.1 builds 4026 and higher.
