Focusrite 1.9 ?

[Fortran]

Hi guys,
Just got my Digi002 rack today and noticed on the ptle6.1 installer disk that there is a digi-design plugins folder with Focusrite 1.9 (d/2 and d/3 plugins). I install them and open protools and they work as a demo, but how do i authorize them, are they free with ptle 6.1 ? It says I need an I-Lok to authorize. Does this mean I only need to purchase an I-lok key to make it work fully ? or do i need to buy the key and then pay for the d2 and d3 after?

I have been seeking an answer on this for quite some time, to no avail. I even talked to a protools tech guy about it and the answer was pretty convoluted. I *think* you must purchase the iLok key *and* the full version of whatever additional plugins you want (i.e. matrix, surroundsource, etc). I'm hoping I'm wrong and that I only need to buy the iLok, but I won't know for a bit. I'm getting comfy with what comes free and easy w/the PTLE 6.1.1 purchase/upgrade and then I'll add stuff later if I feel it's necessary.

If you get a definitive answer on this, pls post it here, and I'll do the same.

The plugs are only demo´s for the plugs (working 10-15 dayes). You can buy the real version at the digistore (price around 5-600$) - so enjoy weile you can..
To run them you have to have an I-Lok, - which is the copy-protection system that Digi uses for plugs. The are a lot of info on I-Lok on http://www.ilok.com.
An I-Lok key costs around 35-40$

That's what I figured - thanks for clarifying!!!
