This report outlines the technical and licensing framework for Wonderware InTouch 10.1 (now part of ) specifically focusing on the wwsuite.lic
file and the nature of "exclusive" licensing models for legacy systems. 1. Overview of Wonderware InTouch 10.1
Wonderware InTouch 10.1 is a Human-Machine Interface (HMI) software used for industrial automation. It allows operators to visualize and control industrial processes in real-time. plc-hmi-scadas wwsuite.lic License File wwsuite.lic
is the primary license file used by older versions of Wonderware, including InTouch 7.11 through 10.1. Overview Wonderware InTouch 10
: It contains feature lines that enable core functionalities such as Development (Dev) Runtime (RT) , and specific Tag Counts TSE Support : It often includes the Terminal Services Edition (TSE)
feature line, which enables remote desktop session capabilities and enforces session limits. Contrast with Modern Licensing
: Newer versions (InTouch 2012 and higher) transitioned to the archestra.lic format or modern XML-based activation. 3. Understanding "Exclusive" Licensing
In the context of Wonderware 10.1, an "exclusive" license typically refers to one of the following constraints: Single Instance
: Each runtime license typically enables only one instance and one version of InTouch per device. Session Exclusion
: In Terminal Services environments, licenses are enforced on a "per device" or "per session" basis, meaning a license used by one session cannot be simultaneously shared by another without additional seats. Hardware/System Binding Exclusive Licensing : The WW Suite Lic Exclusive
: Licenses are often bound to specific system identifiers like the MAC address or Computer Name. If these change, the license may become invalid. Industrial Monitor Direct 4. Installation and Management Licensing for version 10.1 is managed through the ArchestrA License Manager Open Utility : Access the ArchestrA License Manager from the Wonderware common folder. Install File : Select "Install License File" and browse to the wwsuite.lic Verification
: The utility will show the license status as "Valid" once correctly applied. 5. Technical Specifications Table Wonderware / AVEVA - plc-hmi-scadas
If you have newer Aveva software installed (Edge 2023), its FlexNet licensing service might block the older wwsuite.lic daemon. Workaround: Install InTouch 10.1 on a dedicated virtual machine (VM) with no modern SCADA tools.
If a plant’s hard drive fails and the original license file is lost, engineers search for a replacement "Lic Exclusive" file to restore the system without upgrading the OS.
Wonderware InTouch is a flagship Human-Machine Interface (HMI) software product from Wonderware (now part of Aveva). Version 10.1 was a widely adopted release known for its stability and the introduction of new visualization capabilities.
Even though newer versions exist (InTouch 2020 and beyond), many manufacturing plants still rely on version 10.1 due to the "if it isn't broken, don't fix it" philosophy prevalent in industrial automation.
