Overview

To ensure that you only pay for what you want, M1 licensing has been conveniently split into three parts. The three licences are firmware, logging and analysis as set-out below.
M1 FIRMWARE LICENCE
Together with the hardware purchase of an M1 Series ECU, MoTeC's M1 solution includes firmware which is purpose built for the given application. The firmware licence pricing structure varies according to the number and complexity of functions the firmware performs.
M1 Firmware Licence Trade In
M1 customers wanting to replace an existing Firmware Licence in their ECU may be able to trade it in to reduce the cost of the new Firmware Licence. The trade in value is 80% of the price of the old Licence. Customers will only be charged the difference between the trade in value and the new Licence cost.
Example:
Original Licence cost $1,000
Trade it in for $800
New Licence cost $1200
Customer only pays $400
Like any other purchase, these transactions are completed through an authorised MoTeC dealer.
Important conditions to the Trade In System:
- The trade in is available at the time when a Firmware Licence is being removed for replacement with another. Firmware Licences will not be traded in if doing so would leave the ECU without a Package.
- M1 options can’t be traded in (e.g. Logging) – they remain with the ECU
- Development Licences can’t be traded in
- Orders cannot have Trade Ins only; a new Licence or additional options must form part of the trade in order
- Trade in is not available for ECUs sold with Category or Partner Firmware Licences
- MoTeC reserves the right to refuse a trade in for any reason
- Trade in is for the Firmware Licence only; no hardware or activation is included.
- If the new Firmware Licence costs less than the trade in value, there will be no charge but also no refund or credit.
M1 LOGGING LICENCE
The logging licence determines the number of channels and the sample rates available, as shown in the table below.
DATA LOGGING | PROVISION | LOG SETS | MAX SAMPLE RATE | CHANNELS |
Logging Licence | Optional | 8 | 1000 Hz | 2000 |
Logging Licence | Optional | 1 | 200 Hz | 200 including diagnostics |
Logging Licence | Standard | Fixed log set and rate |
