200 Point Limit Exceeded

We only have about 30 actual datapoints, but the PLC is handling all engineering unit conversion and alarm checking.  So for each datapoint requires that Lookout set or monitor 5 real values (Hi and Lo setpoints, Engr. conversion constants, and measured value) and 3 flags (hi and lo enable alarms and alarm indicator).  Which adds up to about 250 references on Modbus Plus which exceeds our 200 licenses limit.  How can I get Lookout to recognoze that there are only 30 actual datapoints??  We are using Lookout V5.1
If this is not possible, how do I increase the license point limit and how much does it cost???

Hello, In fact you do are using the 250 points that you mention. An IO point is not only the members for the PLC, but anything that has access to Citadel and Drivers.

Check the following Link to learn how many IO points you have. Said this, you need to upgrade your license for more IO points.
