The following information applies to software suites for voice telephony products. The ATLAS software suite is used as an example.

Distribution
The ATLAS product is sold through distributors in many market regions or available directly from Dynamic Hearing. Names of distributors can be obtained from Dynamic Hearing

Evaluation
Customers evaluate the ATLAS software suite using an evaluation pack supplied via the distributor. The pack includes:

• Pre-compiled code for the CSR BlueCore-MM Kalimba DSP [ATLAS.kap]
• An example headset application (including source code)
• ATLAS Usage and API document
• ATLAS Product Optimisation Guide
• The ATLAS TOOL for fast audio tuning and optimisation
• ATLAS TOOL User Guide

Prior to commencing evaluation, customers execute a Trial Software License Agreement (TSLA) with Dynamic Hearing. This is arranged through the distributor. The software is provided together with a License Activation Key* for a small range of Bluetooth Addresses for a 30-day evaluation period. Customers can choose to evaluate the software using a development board together with a wired headset (such as the Plantronics .Audio™ 40) or integrate the software into their own headset application and test on their own product.

Licensing
Dynamic Hearing offers a simple process for licensing the ATLAS software. The customer executes a Software License Agreement (SLA) with Dynamic Hearing (through the distributor). The customer issues a purchase order that specifies the number of products that they wish to manufacture and the range of Bluetooth Addresses** they intend to use. Dynamic Hearing provides a License Activation Key and an invoice.

*License Activation Key
ATLAS requires a valid License Activation Key to allow the software to run un-restricted in an end-user product. If a valid license activation key is not present, the software will deactivate audio after five minutes of active processing. The 144-bit License Activation Key allows for a defined range of Bluetooth Addresses to be licensed.

**Bluetooth Address
Every Bluetooth device has a unique Bluetooth Hardware Device Address. The first 24-bits of the Bluetooth Hardware Device Address compose a globally unique company ID or Organisationally Unique Identifier (OUI). This is concatenated with another 24-bit number to create a unique address for each product that is manufactured.
