PAL Plug-In Card

A PAL is a PC plug-in card that is either attached to another card, such as the A/D converter card, or inserted in the PC as a separate card.

The Dongle stores the serial number of the Chromeleon workstation, much as the PAL Plug-In card does. Each workstation has a unique serial number.

The serial number of the PAL plug-in card (or dongle) and the Key Code stored in Chromeleon must match. If they do not match, Chromeleon cannot operate correctly.

Unless there is a PAL, a dongle, or a License Server, and unless the key code is correct, Chromeleon can run in Evaluation Mode only.
