i.LON SmartServer 2.0 Programming Tools User’s Guide  xi   
Web site at 
www.echelon.com/products/cis/activate. To run Echelon first-party FPMs or third-party 
FPMs on your SmartServer, your SmartServer must also have a separate FPM application license from 
Echelon or the third-party FPM vendor. 
Creating FPM Application Licenses 
You can create FPM application licenses for your FPMs to protect your FPMs from unauthorized use 
and piracy, and to make your FPMs available to customers for order. The i.LON SmartServer 2.0 
Programming Tools includes the components required to create a FPM licensing tool. Once you create 
your FPM licensing tool, you can use it to create FPM application licenses that must be installed on a 
SmartServer in order for it to run your FPMs. Customers who want to implement your licensed FPMs 
on their SmartServers must order your FPM application license and install it on their SmartServers.
