Why Choose the ABB DM-KEY Automation Builder USB Licence Dongle?
The ABB 1SAP193600R0001, designated DM-KEY, is a USB licence dongle for ABB Automation Builder. It provides a physical key for compatible software licensing arrangements used on engineering computers.
A portable licence key can help engineers manage access to licensed software when working between suitable workstations. The available software functions depend on the licence assigned to the dongle and the compatibility of the installed Automation Builder version.
The DM-KEY is supplied without a software licence. A suitable licence must be obtained separately and activated through the applicable ABB licensing process before the key can authorise the associated software functions.
Key Advantages
- Provides a physical licensing accessory for compatible Automation Builder software.
- Portable USB format suits engineering workstation use.
- Supports licence arrangements associated with a hardware key.
- Helps engineering teams identify and manage a tangible licensing asset.
- Allows the required software entitlement to be selected separately.
- Suitable for development, commissioning and maintenance workflows using compatible licensed software.
Key Features
- ABB DM-KEY USB dongle.
- Designed for Automation Builder licensing.
- Physical USB connection to the engineering computer.
- Portable hardware key format.
- Used with a compatible licence and software installation.
- Supplied without an included software entitlement.
- Licence activation handled through the applicable licensing procedure.
- Engineering software accessory.
Licence Management for Automation Engineering
Engineering software licences determine which functions are available to the user. With a dongle-based arrangement, the physical key forms part of the licence verification process. This separates the hardware licensing accessory from the software entitlement that defines the permitted features.
For an engineering workstation, the software installation, licence and dongle must be configured together. Possession of an empty key does not activate paid functionality. ABB identifies this product as an Automation Builder USB licence dongle supplied without a licence in its DM-KEY product specification.
Typical Applications
- Automation Builder engineering workstations.
- PLC application development using compatible licensed tools.
- Commissioning laptops with dongle-based licensing.
- Maintenance engineering software access.
- System integrator software licence management.
- Training environments using appropriately licensed installations.
