EMQ License for commercial modules

  • Core framework, dashboard and modbus, mqtt and eKuiper pluggable modules are open source under LGPLv3 license. Neuron could run with these modules without a license installed. A valid trial or official EMQ license must be installed if you need any one or more of the commercial modules as mentioned above.

  • A trial EMQ license can be download from our official website https://www.emqx.com/en/apply-licenses/neuronPlugin List - 图1 (opens new window). All available modules could be used with limitation on 100 connections and 1000 data tags for 15 days. If trial EMQ license is expired, you can re-apply the trial EMQ license via our official website again. However, a mailbox can only apply for a trial license up to two times.

  • Each plugin module can be authorized independently in EMQ license.
