Hello,

Is there a way to set the Trial Mode time to zero ?

When the trial mode expires, logging back into the gateway from a web browser is all that is required to reset the time.

@justinedwards.jle I thnk the OP is asking how to make it zero, not reset it from zero.

See this thread:

> Hi everyone, We are in the process of testing the licensing system for our module and it’s become apparent that we could speed up testing if there was a way to force the trial mode to expire. Is there a way to do this? Otherwise, does anyone have any tips on speeding up this process? Thanks

thank you @Matrix_Engineering

From what I tested it is possible to set the DEMOTIMEREMAINING in the SysProps table to a certain value \< 7200 . To be effective, the gateway needs to be restarted. However, it seems not possible to keep the modified value in memory : when the trial mode time goes to 0 the gateway goes for an other 2 hours trial.
