# Using Cogtool to Display Licenses

Use Cogtool, a utility included with your VisionPro installation, to determine which VisionPro licenses are enabled on your security device. Enter the following in a command prompt window:

cogtool --print | more

The output will look similar to the following. Your output depends on the vision tool options you licensed through your Cognex sales representative.

See the topic Software Update Maintenance Period for details.
