AMAYA OS has 3 available product levels:
Flex +: A dongle-controlled product level allows up to 30 machines to be connected to the PC. You can load individual designs to individual machines. The machines are individual entities.
AMAYA SE: A dongle-controlled product level allows a single cluster (a cluster is a group of machines sewing the same design) to be attached to the PC. Each SE dongle allows you to attach one cluster to the PC (you can have multiple SE dongles). Each machine in the cluster must sew the same design but different clusters can sew a different design. Total machine count cannot exceed 30.
AMAYA Lite: The most basic version of AMAYA OS. There is no dongle required. It is similar to the SE version for AMAYA but doesn't contain the following functionality:
On SE systems it was possible to have multiple SE dongles on a single PC, thus allowing multiple SE machines to connect to the single PC. In Lite, there is a strict limit of only 1 machine that connects to a PC.
