The process typically begins with the installation of the EPLAN License Client and License Manager. These background utilities act as the communication layer between the software and the protection key. For a local installation, the user must connect the hardware dongle (usually a USB device) and allow the system to recognize the drivers. For modern, software-based activations, the user enters an Entitlement ID (EID) provided by EPLAN. This ID validates the specific modules and add-ons purchased, such as 2D panel layout or PLC management, and registers the workstation with the EPLAN validation servers.
