Automation Studio: "Automation runtime target mismatch. The target online does not match." error

Question

When transferring the project to the PLC, the dialog displays "Automation runtime target mismatch. The target online does not match."

How do I get past this error?

B&R Automation Studio version: 4.5.2.

Answer 1

It took me a long time to realize I had the wrong plc plugged in. Attempting to download a project that requires an X20CP0484 plc will not work when an APC3100 plc is connected.

That's exactly right, you found your issue. That error is telling you the controller in your physical view and the controller you are online with have a different part number.
