Automation runtime Installation in APC

Hello Elanthamilan,

You have two main options when working to place Automation Runtime Embedded on an APC3100 for the first time (not talking about Hypervisor here).

  1. Use a CFast card reader to perform an Offline Installation on the CFast card.
    In AS v4: Project > Project Installation > Offline Install
    See Scenario 2 in the AS Help: B&R Online Help (br-automation.com)

  2. Use a USB drive + USB keyboard to install from a USB Install Drive.
    In AS v4: Project > Project Installation > Create USB Install Drive
    See… hmm. It looks like the AS 6 workflow has spilled over into the AS 4 online help. It is described in the AS Help file associated with AS v4.12 at the following GUID: fe6c37d1-5054-47a3-9600-eaa1ccc799c6 (in AS Help: ctrl+g, paste the GUID)
    Note that you will need a USB keyboard to boot from the USB drive and/or accept the installation on the APC/PPC.
