|
.SH NAME
|
|
astribank_allow \- License Xorcom Astribank (xpp) capabilities.
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.B astribank_allow \-D \fIdevice-path\fR [ options ]
|
|
|
|
.B astribank_allow [\-h]
|
|
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
Modern Astribanks (with USB product id's 116x) contain capabilities
|
|
that may be licensed.
|
|
|
|
.B astribank_allow
|
|
is used to upload/download the licensing information to/from the device.
|
|
|
|
Uploading a valid license file to an Astribank, changes its capabilities.
|
|
The change becomes effective after a firmware reset (either by powering
|
|
the device off and on again, or via the \fBastribank_tool\fR full reset option).
|
|
|
|
Downloading license from the device, produces a valid license file for its
|
|
current capabilities. This may be backed up, so the device may be later
|
|
restored to its previous capabilities.
|
|
|
|
The license file contains both a human readable description of the
|
|
device capabilities for the end user and a hash of the licensing
|
|
information used by Xorcom to generate/modify licensed capabilities.
|
|
|
