The window

Help > License info shows all licenses of the HASP key in one tree. At the top: the number of the license key, Licensed to, the key type, the date of production and the number of available licenses – in orange how many of them end within 30 days.

Help > License info: groups of licenses, open green lock = available, closed red lock = not available

The licenses are in groups:

Columns: Feature (number with a lock), License, State, Type, Valid until and Remaining (days; orange when 30 days or less, red when expired). A long name or reason is shown in full in the tooltip.

Update licenses

Each year of updates is a feature of its own: Update 2019 = 200, …, Update 2026 = 207 (feature = 200 + year − 2019). The program needs the update of its release year; the knowledge packs of the AI agents need the update of their own year (see below).

Knowledge packs of the AI agents (license 247)

The knowledge of the AI agents of the editor and of the Robot Cell Simulator is installed only as knowledge packs (*.mdk): signed and encrypted files that cannot be read or changed outside DReS. A pack is loaded only when the key has

The group Knowledge packs of the AI agents (*.mdk) lists every installed pack: available or locked, the year (Update 2026) and the reason, e.g. License 247 - AI agent knowledge ... not found or The knowledge pack of 2026 requires the license Update 2026 (feature 207).

The installed knowledge packs of the AI agents - all available with the licenses 247 and Update 2026

The chat command /knowledge of the AI Agent window shows the same packs with their version and a short description.

When a pack is locked, the AI Agent window works without this knowledge: the pack is red in the list of the knowledge files of the settings (reason in the tooltip) and the summary of the knowledge says Not loaded: file (reason). Buy or renew the missing license (247 or the update of the year) at dramat.eu. Your own knowledge files (*.md) need no license. Details: AI Agent window – knowledge packs.

VeRa voice control (license 248)

The voice control VeRa needs the license 248 API / CLI. Without it VeRa does not start and the status bar shows VeRa: not started - license 248 - API / CLI ... not found.

API

The command license of the editor API (reading, no license needed) gives the same data: {"cmd":"license","details":true} returns licenses (fid, name, onKey, available, expired, privilegesFile, viaExperimental, type, start, end, daysLeft, executions), key {id, type} and knowledgePacks (file, year, available, error).
