How are licenses counted?

The purchase page http://www.usb-over-network.com/purchase.html states the following:
 
1 USB device   $ 199
 
=> does this mean  
a) I can connect 1 USB device per _workstation_
OR
b) I can connect 1 USB device in total to the server at once?
 
Thank you for clarification,
BR,
Chris

Let me explain our licensing. USB for Remote Desktop consists of two  
components: Server and Workstation. Workstation is a free software, so  
you need to pay only for Server(s). 1 installed Server = 1 license.  
However 1 license can be of different types. Each license key enables  
connecting of the specified number of USB devices.
 
1  USB device  
$ 199
5  USB devices  
$ 699
10 USB devices  
$ 999
20 USB devices  
$ 1599
50 USB devices  
$ 3799
 
For example, if you have 1 machine where 1 USB for Remote Desktop  
Server is installed and you need 5 devices to be connected to the  
Server simultaneously - then you need 1 license 5 USB devices. And  
it doesn't matter how many clients are connected to the server. It  
can be 1 client with 5 devices or 5 clients each with 1 device.

Yes, you are right.

How do you determine which devices count?
 
For instance:
Let's say I purchase the 1 USB device because I am interested in remote scanning.  The workstation has four USB devices connected to it.  One is a printer which is already supported in TS, one is a flash drive which I'm not interested in accessing when connected to the TS, one is an external backup drive which I'm not interested in accessing when connected to the TS, and then the scanner which I do need to use when connected to the TS.
 
Do I get to pick which USB device the license counts towards?

Well, the only thing that counts is the number of USB devices connected to the "USB for RDP" Server.
 
In your case you will redirect and connect only 1 device (scanner). So you will need 1 license for 1 device.
 
Actually you can redirect as many devices as you want. But it will depend on the type of license how many devices you will be able to connect to your Terminal Server.
The simultaneous connections between the client and the server is the thing that counts Smiley
