DESCRIPTION
The DS1410D Parallel Port Button Holder interfaces
Dallas Semiconductor Authorization Buttons to host
computers via a PC parallel port. In conjunction with the
Buttons, the DS1410D provides a high security storage
vault for critical execution control information. Only
users that possess a Button can utilize the software,
preventing execution of unauthorized copies.
The modularity of the DS1410D allows for easy feature
customization. The device supports the insertion of two
Buttons, which can be removed and replaced to vary
functionality.
For example, a DS1427 Time Button can be pro-
grammed for a 30 day expiration, issued with a
DS1410D, and a software copy. The evaluator can be
converted into a registered user by issuing a DS1425
Button and inserting it into the second receptacle.
The DS1410D supports the same Buttons as other Dal-
las Button Holders. This allows standardization of any
protection scheme across virtually all hardware plat-
forms, regardless of the operating system. The Buttons
remain constant, and the Button holders change
according to the specific platform interface.
