Ordering FLEX SLV Activations
When advanced FLEX SLV functionality is needed at a site, an Activation
Certificate (Feature No. 9623-C1-221) can be ordered, which will allow you to
activate FLEX SLV features in basic FLEX FrameSaver® devices. You must have
the OpenLane™ SLM system, Release 5.3 or later, to activate FLEX SLV
capability in FrameSaver devices and to manage your certificate(s).

NOTE:
If you have a combination of FLEX models in your network, a separate
Activation Certificate must be ordered for each model. Each certificate
can be ordered for a single unit or for many units.
