Overview

 

The "Development Stations" sub-module (Control Panel > External Systems > Development Station) is used, specifically, to manage MCL-Designer subscriptions (a license type). This sub-module allows you to add, edit and/or delete an entity (= development station) that represents your MCL-Designer subscription.

 

MCL-Designer is a software development tool that allows you to create applications to be used on devices. MCL-Designer can be integrated into MCL-Mobility Platform, via a development station that represents the MCL-Designer subscription (a license that is active during a specific time period) which is associated to a specific product. For more information, see Adding a Development Station.
