Updating Space licenses
Overview
Certain Space features, for example, partitions and visitors, are license-dependent. This means that some functionality will not be enabled in your Space installation unless it is covered by your selected license options. See Registering and licensing Space for more information.
Note that license updates can only be carried out by an operator with admin rights (admin operator).
To view the features enabled for your license, do the following:
- Click the About icon on the top right-hand side of the home screen.
'About' icon on the Space home screen
The About dialog box is displayed.
'About' dialog box
- Click View features. The Features dialog box, listing all features, is displayed.
'Features' dialog box
Enabled features are denoted by a green circle in the Status column. Disabled features are denoted by a grey circle.
The Features dialog box also lists the license limitations, which are the following:
- Maximum number of cardholders
- Maximum number of access points
- Maximum number of access points for mobile guest keys
- Maximum number of access points for mobile SVN users who can update their keys with Near Field Communication (NFC) technology
To enable additional license-dependent features, contact your SALTO representative. When these changes are implemented for your registered account, you can update your installation in two ways:
- From the About dialog box
- From the Features dialog box

To update your license from the About dialog box, follow the steps below:

Note that you can also update your license using the Manual tab if you have already received the license data (.dat) file.
