General information about the STC recognition module licensing

STC software module is licensed according to the following scheme:

Module in useLicensing scheme

Visitor counting channel

By the number of channels

Archive search channel

By the number of channels

Recognition channel

By the number of faces in the database

Thus, the intellect.sec key file is purchased for each camera in use and a certain number of faces stored in the database. Additional key files are not required.

You also need to install the SDK STC and purchase an additional license, which can be represented as follows:

  1. HASP HL hardware security key (sold separately). The HASP hardware kay is implemented as a hardware token (USB token) and is physically installed on the Face Intellect Server. This key is assigned to the computer hardware. It is possible to transfer this key to another Server without losing the license. If necessary, the key can be re-flashed remotely (to expand the permanent key).

    If the security key was installed on the Server with the already running Face Intellect, it is necessary to restart the Face Intellect. As a result, the functionality provided by the key will be activated.


  2. HASP SL software security key (program file). This key is assigned to the computer hardware.

The operation of the STC recognition module depends on the following software related to its license protection:

When upgrading the Face Intellect version, in order to ensure the operation of the STC recognition module, it is necessary to reinstall the Sentinel LDK (Sentinel Runtime).

Installing the SDK of the STC recognition module

Before activating the security key, you need to install the SDK STC. To do this, download the SDK STC 4.6.1 installer from the AxxonSoft website and extract the SDK_data folder from it to C:\Program Files (x86)\.

Activation of the STC recognition module security key

To activate the STC recognition module security key, do the following:

  1. When using a hardware token, make sure that it is connected to the USB connector.
  2. Download the utilities at the following links:
    1. haspdinst.exe;
    2. hasp_RUS.exe.

  3. In the Windows command line, run the security key driver installation command: haspdinst.exe -i

    Make sure that the current directory in the command line is similar to the one where the haspdinst.exe file is located.


  4. Wait for the installation to complete.

  5. Click OK in the installation completion window.
  6. Make sure that the Sentinel LDK License Manager service is in the Running status, and the Sentinel Admin Control Center web portal can be opened. To do this, open thehttp://127.0.0.1:1947/_int_/ACC_help_index.htmlpage in the browser.
  7. Run the hasp_RUS.exe file for the remote update system. The RUS window will open.
  8. To get a key for a "clean computer", set the Installation of new protection key checkbox (1). If a key is already in use, then set the Update of existing protection key checkbox (2).
  9. Click the Collect Information button (3).

  10. Save the file with the .c2v extension to the necessary directory.

    If several license keys are installed on the local computer, then when saving a c2v file, it is necessary to select the key which snapshot is to be generated. You can see the characteristics of the security keys currently available on the Server using the Sentinel Admin Control Center application.

  11. Close the hasp_RUS.exe utility.
  12. Send the resulting file with the .c2v extension to the AxxonSoft manager.
  13. Receive the license file with the .v2c extension from the AxxonSoft manager.
  14. Run the hasp_RUS.exe utility and go to the Apply License File tab (4).
  15. Specify the path to the received license file in the Update File field using the ...button (5).
  16. Click the Apply Update button (6).

Activation of the STC recognition module security key is complete.
