Introduction Execution modes InduSoft Web Studio, EmbeddedView, and CEView support the following execution modes: Evaluation Mode Enables all of the product's engineering and runtime features. The first time you install InduSoft Web Studio on a computer, the product runs for forty (40) hours in Evaluation Mode. This evaluation period includes any time you run a product module (engineering or runtime). You can use this evaluation period continuously or not; for example, 10 hours a day for 4 days, or 5 hours a day for 8 days, or 10 hours a day for 3 days plus 5 hours a day for 2 days, and so on.
After running for 40 hours in the Evaluation Mode, the evaluation period ends and the program automatically converts to Demo Mode until you apply a valid license (hardkey or softkey). You cannot reactivate Evaluation Mode, even if you reinstall the software on your computer. Note: Each version of InduSoft Web Studio has an evaluation period that is independent of every other version.
For example, if your InduSoft Web Studio v7.0 evaluation period has expired and you are running in Demo Mode because you have not installed a license, when you install InduSoft Web Studio v7.1+SP3 on the same computer, the newer version will begin its own 40-hour evaluation period and the older version will continue running in Demo Mode.
