The VxWorks real-time operating system as well as the corresponding development and runtime licenses are not part of the support package.

The customer must obtain a development license for VxWorks from Windriver and use it to create his or her VxWorks image.

For the functions listed above, the customer receives VxWorks support from Siemens in the form of an additional component.
The Siemens component comprises drivers, header files, libraries, documentation and examples. For licensing reasons, Siemens is unable to deliver turnkey VxWorks systems.

The SIMATIC IPC Support Package for VxWorks V1.0 is a runtime license and must be obtained separately for each target system.
