Specify the Required Point Count for a Computer

The available point count for a Citect SCADA computer is determined by the type of license to which it is entitled. This is based on the role assigned to the computer by the [Client]ComputerRole parameter (which is typically set via the Computer Role page of the Setup Wizard).

Normally, the computer will get the first available matching point count. However, you can specify the point count required by a client computer by using the [Client]PointCountRequired INI parameter.

When any remote clients disconnect, the corresponding licenses that have been served to them can be reclaimed.

Note: A INI parameter is also available to control IP address aging. It is used to indicate how long to reserve a license for a given IP address in cases when a remote client connection is lost. This does not apply to full server licenses. The parameter is [General]LicenseReservationTimeout.
