  • Hello.
    To add options to a real controller you need the correct license key, Please contact you local ABB if you want to purchase additional options for your controller.

  • Hey Nils,
    I have application manual of Profinet field bus adapter. Here it does not say anything about license key.
    Also, I am trying to add this function without mounting the Profinet adapter on computer. So i actualy have no profinet hardware

    Do you think is that might be a problem?
  • You should be able to add the option once you have the license for it.
