Licenses
Two licenses are required to use the full functionality of the TE1400 Target for MATLAB®/Simulink® (see Ordering and activation of TwinCAT 3 standard licenses).

Required licenses for TE1400
TE1400: TC3 Target-For-Matlab-Simulink (module generator license)
This license is required for the engineering system for the module generation from MATLAB®/Simulink®. For testing purposes, the module generator of the TE1400 can be used in demo mode without a license.
![]() | A fully functional 7-day trial license is not available for this product. |
Restrictions in the demo version
The module generator has the following restrictions without a license.
Allowed are models with maximum :
- 100 function blocks
- 5 input signals
- 5 output signals
![]() | Modules created with a demo license may only be used for non-commercial purposes! |
TC1320/TC1220: TC3 [PLC /] C++ / MatSim (runtime license)
The license TC1320 (or TC1220 with PLC license) is required to start a TwinCAT configuration with a module generated from Simulink®. Without activated license, the module and consequently the TwinCAT system cannot be started. In this case you get error messages relating to the license violation. You can generate a 7-day trial license, which enables initial tests without purchasing the license.
