Problem:
A Kepware product that has been licensed with a Hardware Key goes into Demo Mode unexpectedly.

Possible Cause:
The USB Port's Power Setting has been configured to power the port down in order to save energy.

Solution:
Check for the power light on the USB key: if it is off, the USB Port is powered down. To change its power setting, open the Device Manager and then select Universal Serial Bus.

Note:
This change may be required for several adapters.
