In resume:
- Basic is only to configure applications for STO7/ST6/STM6/STM6BOX
- To use web server API in STO7 with ETH port and to use Web Server API or/and OPC UA in ST6, STM6 and STM6BOX, Basic License is not enough. For these cases, a Professional license is needed even that we are at Basic HW level
- All EcoStruxure Operator Terminal Expert supported Advanced HMI and iPC applications need to be configured with a Professional license.
