PCAN-Explorer 7: License Dongle: USB-A

Take your PCAN-Explorer 7 license with you — no fixed PC or server installation required.

The PEAK-License Dongle is a portable USB license container for your PCAN-Explorer 7 license (sold separately). Instead of tying a license to a specific PC or server, it can be stored on this physical device. Plug it into any compatible computer and PCAN-Explorer 7 runs using the license on the dongle.

A practical option for engineers who move between workstations, split time between office and field, or simply need flexible access without committing to a single location for activation.

A few things worth knowing:

• The dongle does not include a license — it's a secure container for your separately purchased PCAN-Explorer 7 license
• Existing PC or server licenses can be transferred to a dongle at any time via the PEAK licensing system — a 24-hour waiting period applies between each license transfer
• All dongles are identical and interchangeable. They are not serialized and can be replaced if needed
• Floating License users: if you only need occasional, time-limited offline access (e.g. a single field visit), the free License Borrowing feature in v7.1 lets you check out a license from the server for up to 30 days with no dongle required. The dongle is the better fit for indefinite or frequent offline use, or for Single User licenses (not supported through License Borrowing).

Available in USB-A and USB-C. Both versions work identically. The choice comes down to which port you have available. Both support Single User and Floating licenses.
