Go into License manager and i have 1 for step7 and 1 for wincc. Do i now have to transfer this somewhere else to activate in the upgraded software?

When you have a look in Automation License Manager, do you have a Floating License Step 7 v5.4? or v5.5? (Make a screenshot of your licenses) Best regards, Wizard

When you select the Floating License Step 7 v5.4, go to License Key (at the top) Then go to Upgrade. You will "loose" the Floating License Step 7 v5.4 and you will get the Floating License Step 7 v5.5 Here is a link: how do you install, uninstall and upgrade license keys? Best regards, Wizard

Did you receive: 6ES7 810-4CC10-0YE5? Or did you receive a DVD, containing Step 7 v5.5 SP2 Perhaps you have a Software Update Service contract, then you should have received the upgrade (including the upgrade license) earlier. Best regards, Wizard

I am guessing the boss ordered the wrong box? can this be remedied via the internet or have we got to order a USB stick? Im guessing i am going to have to reload V5.4 for the time being. Many thanks for your help Wizard.

Hello, This can not be remedied via the internet. You need the upgrade license. Did he order a Trial DVD? Or perhaps you havea SUS contract, then the USB stick is deliveried much earlier!!
