Issue
Do the Xenta IO modules, when used under a programable Xenta device, need to have a Field Device license added?
Product Line
EcoStruxure Building Operation
Environment
Building Operation Licensing
Cause
No clear information is provided on if the Xenta IO model needs a Field Device license.
Resolution
No Field License is needed for IO modules if they are set up under a Xenta programable device like a Xenta 400 or 300 series device. Only the devices that communicate to a Building Operation server require a license (Enterprise or Automation Servers). The Xenta IO modules only communicate with the Xenta programable device using LACNET communication and not the Building Operation servers.
