Subscription model
You can purchase the license for the CX-Engine on a monthly basis. This allows you to use the CX-Engine optimally in your company and save costs. A subscription model has the following advantages:
Cost efficient
You only have to buy the CX-Engine license if you really need it! If your company doesn't have that many events in the summer, for example, you can cancel the subscription model free of charge and continue it again in the fall.
Flexibility
Cancellation is free of charge! You can therefore use and purchase CX-Engine flexibly, as and when it suits your budget.
Updates and support
With the subscription model, you are always up to date and have access to new software versions. We are also available for you at any time if you have a problem with your CX-Engine.
The licence key will be sent to you by e-mail after purchase. You enter this in the CX-Engine in the 'Profile' menu.
Updates
The CX-Engine receives regular updates in which software errors are fixed or functionalities are added. To do this, the CX-Engine must be connected to the Internet. So before you start an update, check whether the IP settings of the CX-Engine are correct! You can view updates in the app menu. There you will find two buttons:Update App
Use this button to update the software. This will take a few minutes, depending on your internet speed. The software will then restart and you can start using the new functions.
Update App Data
Use this button to update the supported devices and device types. These updates are significantly smaller and faster, which is why they can be updated separately.
Change IP Address
Here you can adjust the IP address of your CX-Engine to adapt it to your network or to connect it to the internet. The IP network is always a /24 network, i.e. with the subnet mask 255.255.255.0. The gateway is your router, e.g. your Fritzbox.
