Understanding Dongle Emulators for EPLAN P8 2.2 EPLAN Electric P8 2.2 is a widely used professional software platform for electrical engineering design and documentation. To prevent unauthorized use, the software traditionally relies on a physical (a hardware license key) that must be plugged into the computer to launch the application.

• Physical Protection: Save your $2,000+ original dongle from being snapped off in a laptop bag.
