To be able to use CodeMeter technology on
any kind of system, the so-called CodeMeter
Runtime is required. It offers access to the
CodeMeter licenses and keys for the appli-
cations executed on the target system. Sev-
eral different runtime versions are available.
CodeMeter Runtime is intended to be used
on servers, PCs, IPCs, and powerful embed-
ded systems. It offers maximum functionality,
e.g. including an integrated network license
server and a web administration front-end,
and is available as a ready-to-use installation
package for all Windows variants, Linux, and
macOS. It requires 10...30 MByte of RAM.
CodeMeter Embedded is intended for sys-
tems from IPCs, PLCs, and embedded sys-
tems down to powerful microcontrollers. It is
available in the form of libraries and shared
objects for many embedded OS, like Windows,
Linux, Android, VxWorks, and QNX for Intel,
PPC, and ARM processor platforms. It is also
